Finding 3 is not sustained by the evidence. The evidence of B. F. Burt, one of the plaintiffs, found on page 44 of the transcript, shows that when the account was opened with Collins the object of using the firm name of G. A. Collins & Co. was for the personal convenience of Collins in his subsequent settlement with the herders and Mrs. Bouton, and not with the expectation that the account was the account of the firm. Besides, many of the articles sold (and charged in the account of the firm) were for the use of Collins and his family, and bore no relation to the business of the firm; and the plaintiffs did not, on the trial, segregate these items from the general account, nor show which items of the general account were for the benefit of, or went to the use of, the firm.
Judgment and order reversed and cause remanded for a néw trial.
We concur: Morrison, C. J.; Ross, J.; McKinstry, J.
