The .plaintiff was a real estate broker, and brought this suit to recover a commission which he alleged the defendant agreed to pay him if he would produce a person who would exchange other property for the defendant’s property, or would buy said property, in either case, “ on terms and at a value to be acceptable to the defendant.” The appellant pleaded the employment of the plaintiff as his agent to effect a sale or exchange of his property, but on somewhat different terms than those alleged by the plaintiff. Defendant also pleaded a mutual abandonment of the relationship between him and the plaintiff, and that the sale of his property thereafter was without any procurement on the part of the plaintiff.
The judgment is affirmed.
