*470Abstract of the Decision.
1. Guaranty, § 7 * —when of lease is supported by consideration. In an action to recover for rent on a written guaranty (not under seal) of a lease, where it appeared that plaintiff purchased the premises from the defendant subject to existing leases, including the one in question, and it was contended by plaintiff that such purchase was conditioned upon a guaranty of the rents by the defendant and that such guaranty was agreed to prior to the execution of the contract of purchase, and it appeared that such guaranty was contained in the same instrument which assigned the lease in question and was delivered to plaintiff with the deed, and where the real question was whether there was a consideration for the guaranty, held that the execution and delivery of the said documents constituted one transaction and were supported by the same consideration.
2. Deeds, § 196*—when parol evidence is admissible to show consideration. While parol evidence is not admissible to vary or contradict the terms of a deed, yet such evidence may be introduced ' to show the true consideration recited in the deed.
Darrow & Sissman, for defendant in error.
