Description
Defendant answered setting up three defenses: First, that the complaint does not state a cause of action; second, that the transaction was a joint adventure in which he and the plaintiff each agreed to advance $1,500 to be delivered to one Strine, on a purchase of 492 cases of bourbon which plaintiff and defendant were to divide equally, but that Strine failed to deliver any part of that amount; and third, that defendant was merely acting as an agent of plaintiff, and that the money was paid to Strine for plaintiff on 246 cases of bourbon in accordance with an oral agreement between plaintiff and defendant. The jury returned a verdict in favor of plaintiff in the sum of $1,500, appropriate judgment followed, and defendant brings the same here by writ of error.
