*680Thereafter, on April 11,1921, respondent loaned the Liberty Motor Company the amount of $74.70.
The respondent instituted this action to recover against the Liberty Motor Company and appellants the amount due on said notes, claiming that the appellants are liable for the payment of the full amount under their written guaranty, for which amount respondent obtained judgment, and from which this appeal is taken.
The appellants contend that the contract is unambiguous, cannot be explained by oral testimony, and shows upon its face that it was intended as a guaranty of loans to be made by the bank subsequent to the date of the guaranty, and not a guaranty of past indebtedness.
The first paragraph of the contract states the reasons for its execution, the second the promise, and the third the conditions under which the contract may be terminated. The second paragraph containing the promise is the only portion of the contract now under consideration. In this portion of the contract appellants agree to pay at maturity any and all loans and renewals made by respondent to the Liberty Motor Company to the amount of $10,000, with interest. The past indebtedness had already matured. This paragraph is plain and unambiguous and is a guaranty of the future loans exclusively and cannot be explained by parol testimony.
, . it has been established that where the instrument is free from ambiguity and is in itself susceptible of a clear and sensible construction, parol or extrinsic evidence is not admissible even to explain its meaning or determine the construction of the writing. ’ ’ 22 C. J. 1102.

Respondent is entitled, however, to judgment against appellants W. P. Thresher and the marriage community composed of W. P. Thresher and Mrs. W. P. Thresher, his wife, for the amount due upon the $3,500 note, dated March 27,1920, and against all the appellants for the amount due on the note of $74.70, dated April 11, 1921, subsequent to the directors’ guaranty agreement.
