    Action by G. E. Malm and L. M. Malm, plaintiffs, against Harry I. Schwimmer, defendant, on a lease. There was a judgment by confession whereupon defendant moved to set it aside and for permission to appear and defend on the merits.

      Abstract of the Decision.
    Landlord and tenant, § 330
      
      —when affidavit of defense in support of motion to set aside judgment 5y confession on tease is sufficient. Where the purport of the facts set forth in an affidavit in support of a motion to set aside a judgment entered by confession on a lease and to be permitted to appear and defend on the merits is that the parties intended that the lease should not take effect on its delivery, but that the delivery was .conditional upon the doing of something by the lessors before it should take effect, such affidavit tends to show a good defense which the court should have permitted defendant to present.
    William Gillespie, for plaintiff in error.
    No appearance for defendants in error.
