¶1delivered the opinion of the Court.
¶2This suit was brought to recover for brick and stone sold by appellee to appellant, and also for the rent of lot 1425 Wabash avenue, for eleven months, at $25 per month.
¶3In support of plaintiff’s claim, on the trial below, the agreement regarding the sale of brick and stone was introduced. It is as follows:
¶4“ I hereby agree to purchase from W. A. Bayor a lot of brick and rubble stone, delivered to 1429 Wabash avenue, for which I agree to pay at the rate of $5 per thousand for brick, and $8 per cord for stone—the amount of brick not to exceed 325 thousand, and stone not to exceed 107 cords.
¶5O. W. Dameier.”
¶6Asa set-off, appellant offered in evidence a written contract made by him with C. W. Dameier & Son, for' doing the mason work of certain houses, claiming that there was due to him thereunder a considerable amount which should be set off against appellee’s claim.
¶7The claims are not in the same right. A claim against a partnership can not be set off against a debt due to a member of such firm.
¶8That appellant did not know that C. W. Dameier & Son was a firm composed of two persons, is immaterial.
¶9The judgment of the Superior Court is affirmed.
