Facts
Brinson, advanced $2 to D upon an alleged contract to cut four cords of wood at 50 cents per cord to be performed between the 20th and 25th of July, 1914. D was a share-cropper with Brinson, and Brinson paid him wages of $12 per month. After D had secured the advance of $2, he continued to work on his crops, and continued in the employment of Brinson until sometime in October 1914, when, after 'a little scrap' and 'a thrashing' administered to D by Brinson, he turned over all of his crop to Brinson, and left the place without cutting the wood in question or returning the $2 advance. Brinson had not sold all of the crop as of the date of the trial. Brinson claimed that D had no cause for not doing the work of cutting the wood. D said that he left because Brinson beat him and told him to leave. D was found guilty and appealed.
