Appeal from the District Court, Tenth Judicial District, Colusa County.

April 3d, 1872, the defendants gave A. Mead their note for $365.55, payable one day after date, with interest at one and a half per cent, per month. On the 5th day of April, 1872, Mead assigned the note to S. P. French, and French, on the 24th day of February, 1873, assigned the note to the plaintiff. Between the two assignments Mead and the defendants had dealings together, and the amount of the defendants’ account, against Mead, was $235.30, while-Mead’s account against them was $200. The defendants had no notice of the assignments until after these dealings had taken place. The defendants, in their answer, pleaded their account against Mead as a set-off. On the trial, they proved this set-off and rested. The plaintiff then offered proof of Mead’s account against the defendants — the $200.

The defendants objected, because this set-off had not been pleaded. The Court overruled the objection, and admitted the evidence, and gave judgment for the plaintiff, for the amount of the note, less the $35.30, the difference between the two accounts. The defendants appealed.

The other facts are stated in the opinion.
