Syllabus

<p>Practice, C. P. — Affidavit of defense — Master and, servant — Salary—Corporation.</p> <p>In an action against an individual to recover a salary an affidavit of defense is insufficient which merely alleges that the plaintiff was engaged by the defendant as an officer of a corporation named, and that his claim, if he had any, was against the corporation and not against the defendant. In such a ease the affidavit is defective in not alleging that the defendant made known his agency at the time that the contract was made, or that the plaintiff had knowledge of the fact from some other source.</p>
