Appeal from circuit court, Rush county; Samuel A. Bonner, Judge.
Mellett & Bundy, for appellant. Smith & Henley, for appellee.
The appellant was the plaintiff, and the appellee the defendant, in the court below. The complaint is in three paragraphs. Separate demurrers were addressed to the second and third paragraphs, the cause of demurrer being want of facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action.

There are four errors assigned: (1) The court erred in sustaining the demurrer to the amended second paragraph of the complaint; (2) the court erred in sustaining the demurrer to the third paragraph of the complaint; (3) the court erred in overruling the demurrer to the second paragraph of the answer; (4) the court erred in sustaining the demurrer to the secoud paragraph of the reply.
