[...] If one party states that he compromised' the matter out of Court and the other party denies the same it is in our opinion not the duty of the Court to stay the suit and to proceed to hear evidence on the first issue whether the parties out of Court had made a lawful agreement or not. [...] If that were permitted the law's delay which is already excessive would be enormously increased."
