contends that the account is still open to him

items which he contests. First, he says the

balances in his favor, ana neglects to credit
any interest to ptf. when the balance was the
other way Second. that the deft. charged
large sum tor his services when he agreed to
perform the service gratutously. And third
ly, ptf. complains that the deft. bought up
claim against him for his own benefit and
charged it to pitt. which was not authorized
by the terms of the trust deed. All these
items amount to some $4,000 or $500, and the
ptf. seeks to recover that amount in this suit.
