The case of Tobe Odem & Co. VS..
T. ]. Anderson, involving a claim of
$500 for commission on the sale of
real estate was tried yesterday and
submitted to the court.
This case involves an interesting
question in that it seeks a decision
as to how far it is necessary for an
agent to go in the making of trade
or sale of real estate which is not
cosummated before the agent will be
entitled to his commission, and ii al
so involves the question whether if
real estate is listed generally for
sale and a trade for other property
is worked up by the broker he would
be entitled to the same commission
from the real estate owner as if the
property had been sold for cash.
Court has been in session all day
today. This morning the jury in the
case of Davenport VS.. the City of
Roswell handed in a sealed verdict.
but as they hid neglected to answer
several of the special questions tho
court ordered them to the jury room
again, and at the hour of going to
press the jury is still out.
