Appellee, Murray Laboratories, Inc., sued appellant, Dr. Murray, to cancel 45 shares of stock, issued to and held by Dr. Murray, alleging failure of consideration for said stock, for the reason that said shares of stock were not issued for money or property actually received or labor done and were in violation of Article 12, § 8 of the Constitution of Arkansas, and were therefore void and cancellable.
