Opinion

Gunby, J.

It is always competent to show by parol the real consideration of a written instrument, although this consideration be different from that expressed in the contract, and it seems to be universally admitted that such parol evidence does not contradict or vary the written document. C. C. 1900; 32 An. 432; 13 An. 25, 410; 4 An. 53, 441, 540; 5 An. 403; 2 An. 93.
