The appeal challenges the ruling of the trial court taxing part of the costs to plaintiff and the finding of the referee and of the court that defendants were’ entitled to compensation for services rendered prior to January 24, 1898, and particularly for services rendered by defendants upon the appeal to this court of a case entitled Door v. Alford, 111 Iowa, 278. The proposition as to costs we shall dispose of after settling the other matters involved.
And our conclusion upon the whole matter is that plaintiff should have been ordered to pay four-fifths and defendants one-fifth of the costs of the trial, and as to the costs in this court the order will be the same. With this modification, the judgment will be affirmed.
