¶1The delivery and acceptance of wood, under an agreement that the price of the wood shall be taken as the payment of money due upon a promissory note, is not, in the technical language of pleading, payment of the note. Originally payment was the performance of a promise to pay money, at the time and in the manner required by the terms of-the contract; but it has been extended to include the delivery of money in satisfaction of a debt, after a default has been made in payment according to the terms of the contract. If wood is delivered and received as a payment of money due on a note, it is *380only by virtue of a subsequent and independent agreement to that effect, and there is an. accord and satisfaction; and the agreement by which the acceptance of the wood operates as a satisfaction of the contract, and the delivery and receipt of the wood by the plaintiff under this agreement, are substantive facts, which should be set forth in the answer.
