1. ““In this construction of the statute my associates do not concur. They are of opinion that the notice itself is fatally defective in that it does not specify the amount of money spent upon each claim, nor the facts which might excuse expenditure upon each claim.

I do not insist that the notice is sufficient, but think the judgment should be affirmed upon the theory adopted by the trial court.” (Italics ours.)”
