Willson, J.§ 290. Statute of limitations; monthly salary. Where a clerk’s employment was by the month, and he was to receive pay by the month, his right of action would arise at the expiration of each month, and the statute of limitations would begin to run upon the same, and the cause of action upon each month’s salary would be barred after the lapse of two years from the time the same became *119due and payable. [Rev. Stats, art. 3203; Jones v. Lewis, 11 Tex. 363; Mims v. Sturtevant, 18 Ala. 365.]
December 9, 1882.§ 291. Agency; notice of extent of, binding.
