Lead Opinion

Heydenfeldt, J.

Mr. Chief Justice Murray concurred.

Although a party may set up an equitable defence to an action at law, his remedy is not confined to that proceeding. He may let the judgment go at law and file his bill in equity for relief. Our practice, while it enlarges the field of remedy, does not take away pre-existing remedies by implication. «

Judgment reversed and cause remanded.
