    Joseph Fekete, Plaintiff in Error, v. Arthur Nowak, Defendant in Error.
    Gen. No. 20,522.
    (Not to he reported in full.)
    Abstract of the Decision.
    Contracts, g 387
      
      —token breach of contract not shown. Where a lessor of premises used for a saloon entered into a contract with the lessee by which the lessee was to buy beer from the lessor provided that “fifty per cent, of other popular brands of bottled beer” might be sold by the lessee, and such lessor claimed that there was a breach of the contract and offered to prove that the lessee had not purchased bottled beer from the lessor for two months, such offer of evidence was insufficient to show a breach of the contract, since the lessee might have had sufficient beer on hand or might not have sold bottled beer.
