Where an affidavit filed by a defendant on a motion to open a judgment by confession and for leave to plead shows a prima facie defense to the merits, it is not error to deny a motion by the plaintiff for leave to file counter-affidavits.\n3. Sales, \u00a7 282*\u2014when evidence as to parol warranties admissible. In an action on a promissory note given in payment for machinery, held that oral warranties, made by the seller\u2019s agent after the buyer had signed the contract for the purchase and before the seller had approved it, were competent to show that the written contract as signed had been changed.\n4.

Appeal and error, \u00a7 800 \u2014what hill of exceptions must contain. The question whether the trial court erred in not permitting the plaintiff to file counter-affidavits on a motion to open a judgment entered by confession and for leave to plead, held not saved for review where neither the motion nor the ruling thereon was preserved for review in the bill of exceptions.\nAppeal from the Circuit Court of Christian county; the Hon. James C. McBride, Judge, presiding. Heard in this court at the April term, 1916.\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed June 10, 1916.\nStatement of the Case.\nAction by The Russell & Company, plaintiff, against Charles Dunbar, defendant, on promissory notes executed by the defendant. From a judgment for defendant, plaintiff appeals.\nAfter entry of a judgment by confession on the notes the defendant made a motion to vacate the judgment and for leave to plead on an affidavit setting up failure of consideration. Without allowing the plaintiff to file counter-affidavits the execution was stayed and leave granted to the defendant to plead. A jury trial resulted in a verdict for the defendant.\nGeorge T. Wallace, for appellant.\nTaylor & Taylor, for appellee.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to XV, and Cumulative Quarterly, same topic and section number."
