142 Ala. 149 | Ala. | 1904
Special plea numbered fo-ur (4) was subject to the demurrer interposed to it. It contains no averment that the agreement between plaintiff and Lewey to extend the time of payment was supported by ‘a valuable consideration. — M. & M. R. R. Co. v. Brewer, 76 Ala. 135; Scott v. Scruggs, 95 Ala. 383; Howle v. Edwards, 97 Ala. 649.
