    "head_matter": "John Funk, Defendant in Error, v. Chase Fowler, Plaintiff in Error.\nGen. No. 6,479.\n(Not to he reported in full.)\nError to the Circuit Court of La Salle county; the Hon. Edgab Ebdbedge and Hon. Joe A. Davis, Judges, presiding. Heard in this court at the October term, 1917. Certiorari denied by Supreme Court (making opinion final).\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed February 12, 1918.\nStatement of the Case.\nBill by John Funk, complainant, against Chase Fowler, defendant, for accounting. From a decree finding $15,118.10 due from defendant to complainant, defendant brings error.\nThe history of the litigation appears in former opinions in the same case. See 179 Ill. App. 356, and 193 Ill. App. 180. The cause, being reinstated, was referred to a master in chancery who reported the amount due complainant from defendant was $14,-512.11, that the premises in controversy were of the value of $8,000, and that the defendant was insolvent. The report was approved, with small changes, and interest added to date of decree.\nMcDougall & Chapman, for plaintiff in error.\nM. M. Armstrong and Lester H. Strawn, for defendant in error.\nAbstract of the Decision.\n1. Appeal and error, \u00a7 1733 \u2014when decision on former appeal \u25a0 is binding. Former opinion held binding on the trial court and to foreclose the question of defendant\u2019s attorney fees on reinstatement in that court, in a suit by a client against his attorney for an accounting.\n2. Attorney and client, \u00a7 89*\u2014when evidence shows note is debt of attorney. Evidence held sufficient to warrant a finding of the master and chancellor that a certain note signed by both plaintiff and defendant was a debt of defendant and properly chargeable to him, in a suit for accounting hy a client against his attorney.\n3. Attorney and client, \u00a7 89*\u2014when evidence warrants finding as to value of farm of client. Evidence held sufficient to warrant the master\u2019s finding of rental value of the farm in question as the highest market val\u00fae, notwithstanding plaintiff claimed a special value to him in a suit for accounting by a client against his attorney. '\n4. Appeal and error, \u00a7 1575*\u2014when method of computation of interest is \u201e not prejudicial. Defendant was not prejudiced by a method of computation of interest adopted by the master in chancery in computing interest on an account where the method urged by appellant would result in only a slight increase in the amount found due him, in a suit for accounting, but if the amount found was substantially too large, it should he corrected.\n5. Account, \u00a7 1570*\u2014when provision in decree prohibiting attempts to collect allowed account is not harmful. When a party td an accounting has a demand against his opponent allowed, and thus practically paid, he is not harmed hy a provision in the decree prohibiting him from further harassing his opponent with attempts to collect it.\n6. Injunction, \u00a7 1570*\u2014when defendant is not harmed by decree making perpetual an injunction against prosecution of suit. Defendant was not harmed by a decree making perpetual an injunction against him from prosecuting a certain suit irrespective of the fact he had already dismissed the suit.\n7. Mortgages, \u00a7 551 *\u2014rwhen period for redemption from foreclosure sale is proper. A decree fixing the period for redemption from a foreclosure sale at 4 months held proper, in a suit for accounting and cross-bill in the nature of a hill to redeem, where the Appellate Court in a former opinion directed a decree with the period \u2018of redemption fixed therein.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to XV, and Cumulative Quarterly, same topic and section number."
