makers Factory No. 2, or to Charles
o. Normandy personally
No novel questions of law are in
volved, nor are the facts in dispute
The liability or non-liability of the de-
fendant is to be determined from the
practically admitted facts.
A brief outline is as follows: 1t is
admitted that Mr.. Normandy had un-
limited authority and power to pur-
chase goods for his own corporation,
the Mutual Shoemakers, incorporated,
located at Norridgewock; but it is al
SO conceded that he had no power to
purchase goods for any other corpor-
alton or concern on the credit of the
Mutual Shoemakers, Incorporated. The
important question, therefore, to be de-
~mlced is, whether Mr. Sleeper act
ing iNT the plaintiff knew, or should
have known from the course of the
transaction, that Mr.. Normandy was
in fact making these purchases for an
independent corporation.
Two separate sales are involved: The
first was made on Aug. 16. 1910, when
goods to the amount ef s47S.6S were
purchased of Mr. Normandy. This lot
him to Mr. Normandy for the Mutual
Shoemakers, Incorporated, OF NOR
ridgewock, and was charged against
that corporation on the original SAFES
list, and on the ledger, and was
shipped to the defendant with Dill OF
ladng in the same name. Mr.. Nor
mandy made the purchase at the
plaintiffs store in Boston from sam
pies then shown him, and, in the course
of the conversation, selected some
goods of a heavier quality for the
purpose" as he stated. "of making a
few sample shoes for factory locat-
ed at North Anson." The goods were
duly received by the defendant at Nor
ridgewock and accepted. Nothing fur-
ther was heard from the consignment
until September 16, 1910, when a let

sky VS.. Mutual Shoemakers.

KENNEGEC COUNTY - Katherine
Sullivan VS.. Annie Carney and Mary
Sullivan. Per Curiam
This suit in equity is before the court
on an appeal from the final decree of
the sitting justice. The cause was
heard upon bill, answer, replication
and proofs, and was argued by counsel.
Annie Carney is a sister of the plain
tiff. Mary Sullivan is the plaintiffs
daughter.
In August, 1899. the plaintiff held the
agreement of the Hallowell Savings
Institution to convey to her house
and lot of land in HallowelL By Agree
ment of the parties the property was
conveyed to Annie Carney, the de-
fendant, on payment by her to the
granter of the sum then due from the
plaintiff to the granter on account of
the purchase price. In July, 1909, An
ME Carney conveyed the property to
Mary Sullivan, the other defendant.
From 1887 to the date of the filing of
the bill, the property has been the
homestead of the plaintiff, and the de-
PENDANTS made their home with the
plaintiff while not employed elsewhere.
The prayer of the bill is that said real
estate may be decreed to have been
held in trust by said Annie Carney,
and now by said Mary Sullivan, and
that the defendants be ordered to re-
convey to the plaintiff the land and
buildings described in the bill.
Counsel were in substantial agree
ment as to the questions of law in
VOWED, but sharply contended as to
the terms of the agreement claimed by
the plaintiff.
The sitting Justice decided all mat
ters of fact in the plaintiffs favor,
and made his decree accordingly That
decision will not be reversed unless it
clearly appears to be erroneous. The
burden of showing the error lies on
the appellant. From a careful reading
of the testimony we are satisfied that
the decision of the single justice is
supported by the evidence.
The entry must be
Appeal dismissed.
Decree below affirmed with addition
al costs.

PENOBSCOT COUNTY-Mary E. Hol-
land VS.. Alanson J. Merrill, Admir-.
Per Curiam.
This is an action of assumpsit on ac-
count annexed, for board, care and
nursing of the defendants intestate,
and comes up on motion. The amount
claimed was 1926. The plaintiff receiv-
ed a verdict for 1850. No questions of
law are involved. The only point relied
upon under the motion is that the YER
dict is against the evidence.
The plaintiff claims that at various
times between August 1905, and jan
uary Is, 1870 she boarded, cared for
and nursed defendants intestate, in
three dollars per day. She credits $120
on the account.
The defendant denied liability, and
contends that "as the account is made
up it is evidently wholly mercenary
one" The question presented to the
jury was purely one of fact. The evil
dence was conflicting upon points vital
to the issue. The plaintiff did not tes-
tify. The jury who saw and heard the
witnesses We're the proper judges of the
weight and credibility of the testimony.
and their verdict should not be revers-
ed unless it is manifestly the result of
bias or prejudice.
A careful reading of the testimony
fails TO satisfy us that the jury erred.

ter was received by the plaintiffs from
Mr.. Hussey, representing the defend
ant, cf the following tenor: Enclosed
please find check in payment for 46
dozen so NIL black, s163.96, less per
cent, the balance of this bill is for the
Mutual Shoemakers Factory No. 2,
North Anson, Maine. Please change it
on the bill, and place the s309.6S on
their account" These two items made
up the total amount due of s473.6S. The
heading of this letter is of great i'm
portance It reads as follows: The
Mutual Shoemakers. Incorporated,
Factory No. l, Norridgewock, Maine,
makers of infant turn shoes. April l,
1909 three hands, September 1, 1870
so hands, and still growing. Capacity
$500 pair daily-Mutual Shoemakers,
Incorporated, Factory No. 2, North
Anson, Maine. Womens turn comfort
shoes. Juliets and slippers Capacity
1000 pair daily. Charles o. Normandy
president and treasurer" Taking this
heading In connection with the letter
itself, the only reasonable conclusion
to be drawn by the party receiving the
same was that the Mutual Shoemakers.
Incorporated, the defendant, was a
single corporation with two factories,
one located at Norridgewock and the
other at North Arson, and that the
request in that letter was simply for
the separation of the goods sent, into
two bills, one for Factory No. l and the
other for Factory No. 2. 1t is well
known that this is a common custom
among business corporations having
factories in different places. In order
to ascertain the failure or success of
the different enterprises, the accounts
must necessarily be kept distinct. Ger
tainly there was no indication that
there were two corporations, and that
the plaintiffs were to charge a portion
of this bill to a distinct corporation at
North Arson. Acting upon this sug-
eestion, the plaintiffs bookkeeper
made this entry upon the Dill when
had formerly been forwarded to the dc
fendant; Credit by transfer to ac-
count Factory No. 2, $309.6S," and then
receipted the bill; and upon the ledger
inserted the words North AnsonF in
addition to the address of Norridge-
wock Maine; and in lead pencil, op-
posite the charge of Aug. 16. inserted
the words due S309.6S N. A All this
was done by the plaintiffs bookkeeper
without any special authority from his
employers, and it is evident that the
defendant remained the party to be
charged but the account was appor-
toned between the two factories. There
was nothing in this transaction to
lead the plaintiffs to believe that Mr..
Normandy had exceeded his authority;
on the country, the managing director
Of the company had signed this letter
of Sept 16, and thereby adopted the
Jotterhead. ratifying and confirming
his act.
The second sale was made on October
7. 1910 This also was made at the COM
pany's store in Boston, and Mr.. Sleeper
acted for the plaintiff and Mr. Normandy
for the defendant During the course OF
the conversation, Mr.. Normandy stated
that he was attempting to establish
plant at North Arson and interesting
capital in forming corporation to car
ry It on, and he would like to have a
