By the court.
Waties, J.
The evidence is very proper to go-to the jury. Wherever a man is induced, by another’s promise, to release a remedy,-or forbear the exercise of a right which he has, the consideration is good- to support the promise, as at} original- agreement, and it cannot be deemed a collateral undertaking for another, within the meaning of the statute against frauds and juries. Neither does it appear that the parties intended that pay--meat in corn should be an essential part of the contract. It appears to have been casually mentioned, and agreed .on, for the mere. purpose of accommodation.
