1Opinion of the Court
CLAGETT, Associate Judge.
The principal issue presented by this appeal is whether a $2,000 payment by a tenant to a landlord was rent or whether such payment constituted an accord and satisfaction in a dispute over which party should pay for the installation of a new furnace in the rented premises.
