1Opinion of the CourtGillett, C. J.
Appellant instituted this action against appellee. The complaint was in two paragraphs. The first was on a note, the second was on an account. There were seven paragraphs of answer: a general denial, a plea of payment, three pleas of set-off and a plea of accord and satisfaction. Appellant unsuccessfully demurred to the special pleas, other than that of payment. Issues of fact were thereupon joined on said special paragraphs. A trial by jury resulted in a verdict which' consisted merely of a general finding in favor of appellee, and on this verdict judgment was rendered.
