BARNETTE, Judge.

Plaintiff instituted suit against defendants in solido for recovery of an alleged balance due of $1,046.80 for materials furnished to defendants in the operation of certain movie theatres. Plaintiff acknowledged receipt of payment of $769.68, reducing the balance alleged due to $1,046.-80. Defendants contend that the $769.68 paid was in full settlement of the amount due, invoking the principles of accord and satisfaction in support of their defense and plea of estoppel. From a judgment in favor of plaintiff in the sum of $870.93, defendants have appealed.
