No. 20,112.\n(Not to be reported in full.)\nError to the Municipal Court of Chicago; the Hon. Joseph S. La But, Judge, presiding. Heard in the Branch Appellate Court at the March term, 1914.\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed December 22, 1914.\nRehearing denied January 5, 1915.\nStatement of the Case.\nAction for merchandise sold and delivered by-Charles H. Brown Paint Company, a corporation, against C. A. Erickson & Brothers, a corporation. The affidavit of plaintiff showed a claim for $50.45, and defendant\u2019s affidavit of merits stated that the claim was paid except a balance of $7.95, and that some of the material delivered was unfit for use, whereby the defendant sustained damages. From a judgment for the plaintiff, defendant brought error.\nAbstract of the Decision.\n1. Principal and agent, \u00a7 131 \u2014when payment to agent does not bind principal. Evidence of payments to an agent is inadmissible where the agent\u2019s authority to receive payments is not shown.\n2. Sales, \u00a7 401*-\u2014when damages for breach of warranty are not shown. In an action for goods sold and delivered, where no actual damages are shown by reason of defective and unfit material, such defense is not established.\nJohn E. Erickson, for plaintiff in error.\nBaker & Holder, for defendant in error; W. W. Hoover, of counsel.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Yols. XI to XV, and Cumulative Quarterly, same topic and section number."
