THOMAS, J.

The suit is on a guaranty contract for the sale of goods. A former appeal is reported as J. R. Watkins Medicine Co. v. Hargett et al., 209 Ala. 165, 95 So. 811. The defenses now made were the general issue and that the contract was entered into on Sunday and was void. Stewart v. Harbin, 206 Ala. 484, 90 So. 496. At defendants’ request in writing the court gave the affirmative charge for them. Though it was competent to ask the witness Pace, on cross-examination, “How much medicine did you buy from the plaintiff?” (Steen v. Swadley, 126 Ala. 616, 28 So. 620; Sorrell v. Scheuer, 209 Ala. 268, 96 So. 216), no prejudicial error was committed in the ruling, since the witness thereafter answered.

The affirmative charge should not have been given. The time and place of closing the contract was in dispute, or was a matter of inference for the jury. McMillan v. Aiken, 205 Ala. 35, 88 So. 135. The contract was dated December 1, 1916, judicially known to have been Friday, and subject to be disputed by parol evidence. Formby v. Williams, 203 Ala. 14, 81 So. 682. The presumption is that the contract bore its true date, since it contained no indications of erasure or falsity. Nelson v. Brown, 164 Ala. 397, 51 So. 360, 137 Am. St. Rep. 61; Williams v. Armstrong, 130 Ala. 389, 30 So. 553; Hauerwas v. Goodloe, 101 Ala. 162, 13 So. 567. The place indicated therein was Winona, Minn.; and the plaintiff’s evidence was to the effect that the contract only became executed and effective when received and approved at such time and place. Defendants’ testimony tended to show that it was executed on Sunday at Russellville, Ala., *64 and mailed to plaintiff. Where the evidence is in conflict, the general charge should not be given. McMillan v. Aiken, 205 Ala. 35, 88 So. 135; Louis Pizitz Dry Goods Co. v. Cusimano, 206 Ala. 691, 91 So. 779; Haynes v. Phillips, 211 Ala. 37, 99 So. 356.

The judgment of the circuit court is reversed, and the cause is remanded.

Reversed and remanded.
