Wills v. Kempt
17 Cal. 98
Cal.
1860
Check Treatment
Cope, J. delivered the opinion of the Court

Field, C. J. and Baldwin, J. concurring.

The objection that the complaint does not show a sufficient consideration for the agreement is not well taken. The agreement is under seal, and it is unnecessary thEit the consideration should have been expressed. The law imports a consideration from the seal, and no averment upon the subject was required. (See McCarty v. Beach, 10 Cal. 461.)

The demurrer was properly overruled, and the judgment is affirmed.
