The court refused the following instruction requested by defendants: "In the present case, the plaintiffs are the assignees of leases entered into between the former owners and defendants. The effect of the assignment *56 is to transfer the interest of the former owners in the leased property to plaintiffs. The plaintiffs stand in the shoes of the former owners, taking their rights and remedies, subject to any defenses which the defendants had prior to the notice of the assignment. The plaintiffs can gain no better position than the former owners had with respect to the subject matter of the assignment."
