Even though the affidavit of merits in an action in the Municipal Court of Chicago is not clearly and logically drawn,' contains immaterial matter and states the amount of damages poorly and weakly, it is sufficient where, on analysis, it sets up a good defense to the whole of plaintiff\u2019s claim, sufficiently specifies the nature of such defense and states the damages in such a manner as to render the amount claimed obvious.\n2. Sales, \u00a7 320* \u2014 what may he set off in action for purchase price. In an action for the purchase price of goods, defendant may set up that goods were of an inferior grade and not according to the contract noy to the sample.\n3. Municipal Court of Chicago, \u00a7 13* \u2014 when statement of claim is founded on original contract of sale.
