contractor declared that he had never or.
dered the work done. and therefore owed
him nothing.
Bower. on the other hand, testified that
he did instruct Fox to execute prelimi.

distinctly told Fox that unless he received
the contract to build the house the plans
would be of no use, and he therefore would
mot nav for them. Fox agreed to this said
Bower. and drew the sketch. Regarding
the second plan which Fox drew, the wit
ness said he had never ordered it, and
would not pay for it.
Bower went further than this general
denial BY producing several well known
architects to testify that the plans, even i
they had been ordered, were not worth hall
