BRAWLEY & GANTT v. THEODORE TURNER.
    (Filed 7 November, 1917.)
    Contracts — Quantum Meruit.
    No .error is foiind in tbis action to recover upon a quantum meruit for tbe value of services rendered in procuring a pardon.
    Appeal by defendant from Kerr, J., at the March Term, 1917, of DURHAM.
    This is an action to recover the value of services rendered in procuring a pardon for the defendant.
    There was a verdict and judgment for the plaintiffs, and the defendant appealed.
    
      Manning, Everett & Kitchin for plaintiff.
    
    
      W. H. Qarroll for defendant.
    
   Per Curiam.

We have carefully examined the record and find no error. The rulings upon evidence, considered in connection with the caution given to the jury, were clearly right, and the whole controversy resolved itself into an issue of fact for the jury.

The plaintiffs first alleged a special contract to pay them $500, but abandoned this cause of action and recovered $350 on a quantum meruit.

No error.
