Head Matter:
Capener v. Hogan.
Error to the District Court of Cuyahoga County.
Arnold Green, for plaintiff in error.
B. M. Brown, for defendant in error.

Opinion:
H. recovered a judgment against C. for commissions on an exchange of land between C. and D., wherein H., with the consent of C., acted as agent for both parties: but it did not appear that D. knew that H. was agent for C.
Held: H. could not recover from either principal unless both assented to his double agency; Bell v. McConnell, 37 Ohio St., 396, followed and approved.
Judgments of district court and common pleas reversed.
