y In 1891, the defendant as agent
for the owner Of certain real estate,
and in her name but without authority
and without believing in good faith
that he had such authority, executed
and delivered to the plaintiff written
contract to sell and convey the same
upon the crop payment plan. The de.

pleted his payments and became en-
titled to deed in the fall of 1901. In
March, 1902, the plaintiff was elected
in an action instituted by the owner.
Upon these facts it Is held, a. that
the defendant is liable as, principal
upon the contract, and for it's breach;
(2,) that plaintiffs cause of action
arose when he was elected by the
owner, and is not barred by the
statute of limitations; and, 60 that a
judgment for the value of the land at
the date of the breach and for his
costs and expenses in defending the
action of ejectment was proper. ~
