37 Ala. 422 | Ala. | 1861
The issue in this case was, wliafc were the terms of the contract between Bivens and Brown ? The stipulations of another contract-, between Brown and some other portion of his school, could not legitimately shed any light on the question in issue in -this cause. This question. being foreign from the issue before the jury, it was not. competent-to contradict what the witness might say in regard to it, “ with the view and sole purpose of discrediting him.” — Blakey v. Blakey, 33 Ala. 621.; Ortez v. Jewett, 23 Ala. 662.
Judgment affirmed.
