Ibach, P. J.
— Appellant sued appellee before a justice of the peace on four notes for $25 each, interest and attorneys’ fees. Appellee filed a counterclaim, in which he pleaded that the notes were given as part of the purchase price of a musical instrument called a concerto; that appellant had warranted the mechanical construction and durability of the machine for one year from the date of sale; that this warranty had failed; that appellee had already paid $275 for the concerto, and had on his hands a worthless machine, and was greatly damaged by the breach of warranty. He demanded judgment for $200 on his counterclaim, and obtained such judgment. Appellant appealed to the circuit court, and there appellee again recovered judgment for $200.
1. R. A. Mitchell was permitted to testify at some length, and at the close of his testimony, appellant’s counsel objected, for the first time, to the whole of his testimony, giving his reasons, and on his objection being overruled, he moved to strike out such testimony for the same reasons, which motion the court overruled. These rulings of the court are assigned as error.
The rulings were correct. “For evidence first taken at the trial, the objection to a fact or group of facts must be taken at the moment after the offeror has uttered his question or otherwise made his offer of the fact; except that where the ground of the objection is found only in some feature of a witness’ answer which could not have been reJied upon until the answer was made, the objection may and must be made immediately after the answer.” Wig-more, Evidence (Pocket Code) §74.

Appellant moved in arrest of the judgment, on the ground that the justice did not have jurisdiction of the subject-matter, and as he had no jurisdiction, the circuit court could acquire none. This motion was overruled, and it is urged that such ruling -was erroneous.
2. Where a set-off, or counterclaim for unliquidated damages is pleaded, the justice has jurisdiction, if the defendant, after crediting the plaintiff’s demand, does not claim more than $200, the jurisdiction in such eases being determined by the damage claimed. §§1721, 1782 Burns 1908, §§1433, 1491 R.

The theory of defendant’s counterclaim seems to be that there wras a failure of consideration for the notes by reason of the failing of the warranty, and that appellee was damaged by such breach of warranty to the amount of the difference between the value of the machine as warranted and its actual value. Whether the counterclaim be construed as alleging that nothing was due on the notes, and demanding *95damages for $200, or as admitting the validity of the notes, and demanding $200 after crediting the amount thereof, in either case the justice would, have jurisdiction, for, on either theory, only $200 above the amount due the plaintiff was demanded. The justice found against appellant on its cause of action, and for appellee on his counterclaim, and rendered judgment for $200 for appellee, and in so doing acted within his jurisdiction.
Judgment affirmed.
