151 Mass. 94 | Mass. | 1890
This is an action to recover the price of fertilizers bought by the defendant’s husband. The main question is whether there is any evidence that he was her agent in the purchase. The defendant’s husband had conveyed his farm to her, and she was carrying on business on her own account as a farmer and milk-dealer when the fertilizers were bought. The defendant and her husband denied that any fertilizers were used
It is stated that the plaintiff accepted the promissory note of the defendant’s husband in payment for the first car-load of fertilizers. But the facts are not set out with a view to raising the question whether a resort to the defendant for the price of that portion is precluded, and, as it is not material at this stage of the case, we express no opinion upon it. See Melledge v. Boston Iron Co. 5 Cush. 158, 170; French v. Price, 24 Pick. 13, 21.
Exceptions sustained.
