““A question somewhat similar to this has been decided in Richard v. Southern Building & Loan Association, 49 La. Ann. 481 , 21 South. 643 , where it was held that a loan of this nature was not to be treated as usurious, for the reason that the payments supposed to constitute the usury were by the terms of the contract made upon the stock debt, and not upon the loan.””
