¶1 Upon the merits we have reached the conclusion that the issues joined in the pleadings have been properly determined. But it appears that through some oversight the amount conceded to be due and owing the plaintiff, to wit, the sum of $1,709.54, which was tendered to him by the defendants before this action was brought, was not included in the judgment. In view of the fact that this was an equity action and is a final adjudication of the differences existing between the plaintiff and the defendants the item should have been included in the judgment, unless it appeared that the amount had been paid into court or the tender kept alive. The respondents’ counsel, upon the argument of this appeal, consented that the item 'might now be included. This correction, however, could have been made on motion at the Special Term without the expense of an appeal upon a case and exceptions. We, therefore, are of the opinion that the modification ordered should not affect the question of costs.
¶2 The judgment should be- modified so as to allow the plaintiff to recover the amount tendered, to wit, $1,709.54, and as so modified affirmed, with costs to the respondents.
