Head Matter:
HEIDRITTER et al. v. WOLF.
(Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Second Department.
December 29, 1905.)
Husband and Wife—Actions—Liability of Wife fob Value of Building Materials—Question fob Jury.
In an action against a husband and wife to recover the value of building materials used in the construction of a house, evidence as to the liability of the wife held sufficient to entitle plaintiff to a submission to the jury.
Jenks and Woodward, JJ., dissenting.
Appeal from Trial Term, Richmond County.
Action by Frederick L. Heidritter and another against Theresia Wolf and husband to recover the value of building materials used in the construction of a house. From a judgment of nonsuit in favor of Theresia Wolf, plaintiffs appeal.
Reversed.
Argued before HIRSCHBERG, P. J., and BARTLETT, WOODWARD, JENKS, and RICH, JJ.
Richard T. Greene, for appellants.
Frank H. Innes, for respondent.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
While the evidence in this case may be slight, we think there was sufficient to carry the case to the jury on the question of the liability of the respondent to pay the plaintiffs' claim, and that a nonsuit was accordingly improper.
Judgment and order reversed, and new- trial granted; costs to abide the final award of costs.
