“2nd. Money lent by the plaintiff to the defendant.

*895“3rd. And money paid by the plaintiff for the defendant at its request.

“Plaintiff avers that neither said sum of money nor any part thereon has been paid, but that the same remains wholly due, owing and unpaid from the defendant to the plaintiff.

“Wherefore, plaintiff sues apd claims Three Thousand Dollars, damages.” t

The defendant pleaded “that it never was indebted as alleged.” There was verdict and judgment for the plaintiff, and the defendant took writ of error.

There is ample evidence to afford a legal basis for the verdict found for the plaintiff ón the issues as made, and as the evidence does- not so- preponderate against the verdict as to show the. jury, were not governed by the evidence, and no material error of law or procedure appearing, the verdict • will not be disturbed by the appellate court.
