the defendant agreed to pay; that
there has been paid plaintiff on ac-
count of the labor and services 80 per-
formed the sum OF $23, and no more"
together with a demand for judgment.
The answer was a general denial. The
proof made established an employment
by the month for an agreed monthly
wage, and non-payment. The court
directed a verdict Of dismissal on the
ground that the complaint stated "a
cause of action on a quantum meruit,
whereas the uncontradicted evidence
showed any services performed were
under and by virtue of an express con-
tract" Held error in that there was
no variance between the complaint and
the proof. The complaint was not on
a quantum meruit count.
