1Opinion of the CourtGreen, J.

Plaintiffs Childers brought this action to recover upon a promissory note given by the defendants Alexander in partial payment for the purchase of land in Yakima County. The total purchase price was $44,000. Defendants counterclaimed for reformation to reduce the purchase price by $9,000 for alleged damages caused by chemical agents on a small portion of the land. Following trial to the court, judgment was entered for plaintiffs. Defendants appeal.

The sole question is whether the court erred in refusing to grant the reformation. We affirm.
