Best, otherwise known as E. Maro, deceased, against William C. Hunter on a contract between defendant and deceased alleging that defendant refused to take back certain shares of stock at the price paid by deceased, contrary to the agreement.

In an action by an executrix on a contract with decedent in the form of a letter whereby the defendant agreed to take back certain shares of stock from deceased at any time within two years at the price paid, a declaration which does not allege the name of the corporation and does not aver that the shares were delivered by defendant and received by decedent, held demurrable.\nKern & Clare, for plaintiff in error.\nCharles H. Wells, for defendant in error.'\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to XIV, same topic and section number."
