(defendant herein) and not having recovered the expenses incurred,
plaintiff sought to tender payment to the defendant his yearly rental
for the amount of P12,000.00 which will be due on or before October
31st. Despite repeated demand to accept payment, defendant failed,
neglected and refused, and continues to fail and refuse to accept
payment of the due yearly rental. (copy of affidavit or anything
attesting to the fact of refusal);
