    Statement of the Case.
    Action by Frank Kieshkowski, plaintiff, against Harry Bostrom, defendant, on an appeal bond. From a judgment for plaintiff, defendant appeals.
    O. D. Olsoh, for appellant.
    
      John W. Sutton, for appellee; Martin L. Wilborn, of counsel.
    Abstract of the Decision.
    1. Appeal and error, § 1870
      
      —what constitutes a discharge of obligor in appeal bond. In an action on an appeal bond, held that the plaintiff’s demurrers to defendant’s plea, setting out that while the appeal was pending the plaintiff agreed to and did discharge the obligation in consideration' of the defendant’s paying him a less amount than that of the judgment, were improperly sustained inasmuch as the defendant was not obliged to pay the plaintiff in any event until the appeal was disposed of, so that the immediate payment of a lesser sum than that of the judgment was a sufficient consideration for the release thereof.
    2. Appeal and error, § 1881*—when plea of discharge of obligor sufficient on demurrer. In an action on an appeal bond, obligating the defendant to pay the judgment with interest and costs in the Appellate Court if it should be affirmed, held that demurrers to the defendant’s plea, setting out a satisfaction and discharge of the judgment pending appeal, were improperly sustained on the ground that the plea did not answer the entire declaration, since the plea fully answered the alleged breach in failing to pay the judgment, which was in reality the substance of the action.
