GARDNER, J.

The negotiable character of the instrument, the subject-matter of this litigation, was not destroyed or affected by the recital therein “for rent McLemore place on Vaughn Road, one hundred and sixty acres, for year 1925,” which constitutes only a statement of the transaction which gave rise to the instrument. Section 9031, Code of 1923; People’s Bank v. Moore, 201 Ala. 411, 78 So.
