Appellant sued appellee to recover balance due on an account' for goods and merchandise sold and due on an account alleged to be guaranteed by appellant in the following written instrument:

“To H. Ross, 1207% Lincoln Street,

Laredo, Texas.

“Roberts, Johnson & Band, Manufacturers, Branch of International Shoe Co. St. Louis— Gentlemen: In compliance with your request for a guaranty of the tenor following to establish with you a-credit for H. Ross of San Antonio, Texas, and in consideration of your extending the time for payment for the stock now. on hand and of your. shipping merchandise to said H. Ross in the future, we hereby unconditionally, jointly and severally guarantee payment of whatever said party shall, at any time, be owing you whether heretofore or hereafter contracted; this guaranty is to take effect without notice of its acceptance (which is hereby waived); and it is to be an open guaranty, and to continue in force notwithstanding any renewals or extensions granted by you, without obtaining previous ‘consent thereto, and until expressly revoked by notice to that effect in writing, from us to you. Any notice of revocation shall apply only to .credits extended by you after receipt of such notice.

“Notification of said party’s defaults is hereby waived, but our liability hereunder is not to exceed the sum of $3,500 at any one time. It is- mutually understood that this guaranty is to bind the party who signs it, whether the same be signed by any other party or not.

“Dated this 2d day of August, A. D. 1911.

“H. Ross. [Seal.]

“Rachel X Kaufman. [Seal.]

“-. [Seal.]

“Witnesses:

“Irene S. Bradford (bookkeeper).

“S. Varelor.”

It will be observed that all the goods were purchased by Ross prior to the alleged guaranty of August 2; 1921. Ross died September 9, 1921. After the death of Ross, appellant shipped him, on the 28th of September, 1921, a bill of goods amounting to $45.60; but these *1110 goods were reclaimed and repossessed by appellant.

Tbe express purpose and intent of tbe written guaranty was to, bave extended to Ross a line of credit, wbicb because of bis death failed and tbe instrument was lacking in consideration and mutuality, wbicb was pleaded. ' There is neither pleading nor proof to show that appellant ever extended or intended to enlarge the time for payment for the stock Ross bad on band when tbe guaranty was signed. Tbe purpose of tbe ifndertaking was to “establish” a line of credit for Ross. Before a line of credit was established for Ross and before any goods were sold and delivered, Ross died, and this of itself revoked tbe obligation. It was entirely of a personal nature and could not be passed by any assignment or go to bis heirs. Tbe length of time for tbe extension of credit was until revoked, wbicb tbe death of Ross did. Ross paid all that was due or would become due, until October 1, 1921, and there is nothing pleaded ¡nor proven that said last-named amount was extended. Erom tbe date appellee executed tbe guaranty until Ross died, nothing was due appellant from Ross, and appellant could only bave caused an extension of tbe debt by a direct promise, wbicb is not shown ,to bave been done.

Tbe payment made by Ross July 23d should be applied as a credit to the bill purchased May 26th, and due 30 days thereafter, and tbe bill purchased July 21st, due in 30 days, rather than to the item to become due October 1st. Tbe payment made was just equal to tbe sum of the two bills due in 30 days, so Ross was really never in default after tbe guaranty until after bis death.

The rule in reference to tbe application of payments in tbe absence of any request from tbe debtor is to apply payments to tbe items longest due. Palm v. Johnson (Tex. Civ. App.) 255 S. W. 1007.

An extension of time for payment must be for a definite period of time to become binding. Austin Abstract Co. v. Babn, 87 Tex. 582, 29 S. W. 646, 30 S. W. 430; Bank v. McCord (Tex. Civ. App.) 39 S. W. 1003; Bank v. Skidmore (Tex. Civ. App.) 30 S. W. 565; Robson v. Brown (Tex. Civ. App.) 57 S. W. 83; Wilkins v. Carter, 84 Tex. 438, 19 S. W. 997. There was no definite time for extension alleged, made, or proven.

The agreement contemplated extending a line of credit and securing for Ross an extension of time until revoked in writing. > Before doing either thereunder, Ross died. This completely revoked tbe agreement or offer. .

Tbe only shipment of goods, or any act done, after tbe alleged guaranty, was the goods shipped on September 28, 1921, nearly three weeks after the death of Ross. Tbe offer of extension of a line of credit and shipment of goods terminated and lapsed by tbe death" of Ross. 13 C. J.; Travelers’ Ins. v. Jones, 32 Tex. Civ. App. 146, 73 S. W. 978.

We find no reversible error assigned, -and tbe judgment is affirmed.
