G. EDWARD MYERS, PLAINTIFF-APPELLEE, v. COUNTY OF MIDDLESEX, A MUNICIPAL CORPORATION OF NEW JERSEY, DEFENDANT-APPELLANT.
    Submitted May 15, 1936
    Decided June 4, 1936.
    Before Justices Bodine and Heher.
    For the defendant-appellant, Edmund A. Rayes.
    
    For the plaintiff-appellee, Frederick F. Richardson, Morris Roth and Stephen V. R. Strong.
    
   Per Curiam.

Plaintiff had judgment against the county of Middlesex for the storage of a snow plow and services rendered in assembling tractors and plows for clearing snow. The case is entirely devoid of any evidence that a contract was made by an authorized agent of the municipal corporation or had ever been ratified by it. Potter v. Borough of Metuchen, 108 N. J. L. 447; 155 Atl. Rep. 369; Ratajczak v. Board of Education of Perth Amboy, 114 N. J. L. 577; 177 Atl. Rep. 880.

The judgment, therefore, must be reversed.
