HlERoNYMUS BROTHERS V. BEEN
 WILLIE WATER SUPPLY co,

HlERONYMUS BROTHERS v. B1EN- WILLIE WATER SUPPLY co. | Action to recover damages for breach of contract to supply water.-Appeal from the Circuit Court of Mobile. Contract containing clause for ter minntion.-A clause in q contract that 1 provides that the life of the agreement is for one year, and to continue thereafter uLtil either party shall ggve the other | notice in writing of his desire for a dis continuance, does not affect the right of either to insist on full performances by the other. or to stop performance for the other party's default.
 ?. Contract terminable at will; failure to act on default.--Where a contract to supply water Is terminable at will after the first year. 1t can not be construed as running from year to year thereafter, or as committing one party to the per- formance because that party delayed for & few months to act on the default of the other.
 3 Action for breach of contract; res adjudicata; admissibility of evidence.--In an action to recover damages for the breach of a contract, where the defend ant by special plea, sets up that the contract was terminated by it on ac- count of a default by the plaintiff and that after the contract was so terminated, 1t brought a suit against the plaintiff to recover the amount due under said con tract. nd that the judgment in said case was $ adjudicata and estops the plain tiff from alleging that he had complied with the contract. and the defendant in- troduces in evidence the record in the former case. together with the steno- graphic report of the evidence taken therein, which Is admitted to be true. it Is competent for the plaintiff to intro duce additional evidence, showing that as a matter of fact he had paid the amount stipulated for in said contract. and that the Judgment was for a balance due the defendant on said contract from the time the plaintiff had made the payment on said contract. up to the time of the breach by the defendant as complained Of
 1. Pleading and practice; when allega- tions of pleading not proved.--Where, in a suit for the breach of a contract, it Is averred in one of the pleadings that the parties mutually agreed and contracted for certain service during designated term. beginning from January 1, 1897, and ending December 31, 1897. the testimony that after entering into the contract, which was the basis of the suit. in 1894. both of the parties thereto continued un- der 1t from 1894 to 1897. do not support the allegations of the plea.
