Head Matter:
Martha C. Sears, Appellant, v. Emilie J. Hetfield and Title Guarantee and Trust Company, as Executors, etc., of Louis Philippe Mendham, Deceased, Respondents.

Opinion:
Judgment and order reversed upon the law and the facts and new trial granted, costs to appellant to abide the event. It was error to charge the jury that if the services were rendered to the corporation, even though decedent requested plaintiff to perform them, there could be no recovery. Lazansky, P. J., Young, Kapper, Seeger and Scudder, JJ., concur.
