21 Iowa 305 | Iowa | 1866
Defendant having availed himself of this statute, our opinion is that the demurrer was well taken as to so much of the petition as relates to the work and labor performed in 1858 and 1859, and that it should have been overruled as to that performed in 1860. The action should have been brought within five years after the cause of action accrued.
The demurrer was sustained as to both items. This was erroneous as to so much of the petition as counted upon the labor in 1860 and correct as to that performed in 1858-9.
Reversed.
