1Opinion of the CourtBaTTEE, J.

This is the second time this action has been in this court on appeal. When it was here the first time, the decree of the chancery court was found to be correct in all respects, except it allowed interest on the account of Meyer against Johnson for 1883 at the rate of ten per cent, until paid, when the interest should have been allowed at ten per cent, until February 14, 1884, and after that time at six per cent, per annum. The decree was reversed, and the cause was remanded with directions to enter judgment in accordance with the opinion of this court, and for further proceedings.
