Whortleberry Boxes.

Before Judge Quinn.
Moore rs. Jackson et al-This action was brought
TO recover the price OF lot OF whorteberry boxes
sold by the plaintiff to the defendants, who are
engaged in the fruit business in washington Market.
The defendants recepted to the plaintiff for the boxes
but claim that they purchased them from o man
named Gilman, who called upon them at their stand
and solicited the order. The question presented In
the case was whether Gilman was clothed with
authority to receive payment for the boxes. The
plaintiff testified that he Cilmanl had no authority
TO collect the money, and that he was not con-
nected with him in business. The Court held that
even though Glman was clothed with authority to
solicit the order that would not authorize him to
receive payment and II the defendants had paid him
through negligence they could not be relieved from
payment to the proper party.
