1Opinion of the CourtWeaver, J.
The defendant, Elise Beuthien, wife of her codefendant, M. Beuthien, owned certain property in the town of Durant, which she sold and conveyed to one Miller. The plaintiff sues both husband and wife to recover a commission upon such sale, alleging that he procured Miller to make the purchase, as he had been previously authorized to do by the defendant M. Beuthien. The defendants, separately answering, deny plaintiff’s agency in the matter of said sale, and deny his right to a commission thereon.
