      Abstract of the Decision.
    1. Judgment, § 252
      
      —when court may amend at later term so as to strike out name of party. Where a party was named as one of several defendants In a prcedpe for summons and in the summons, and was served but her name was omitted from the original declaration and an amended declaration, held that plaintiff by omitting such party’s name from his declaration abandoned his suit as to her, and the entry, of her name in the judgment after verdict against the defendants without naming them upon pleas by the defendants without naming them was a mistake of the clerk which the court had power to correct by amending the judgment at a later term after notice to the opposite party, although such omitted party joined in praying an appeal and in executing an appeal bond.
    2. Contracts, § 53*—when contract deemed to be that of parties signing. Where a written contract named several persons as parties thereto, but was not signed by one of them and all parties knew she had not signed it, and the contract was carried out by the parties signing same and was by stipulation of such parties in an action based thereon introduced in evidence as such contract between them without denial of joint liability because she had not signed it, or instruction asked to such effect, held that such contract would be treated as the contract of those who signed it.
    3. Building and construction contracts, § 103*—when shown that one party to contract acted as agent for other owners in construction of building. Evidence held sufficient to show that one of the parties named in a certain building contract sued on as owners of the building acted in the construction of the building as the agent for the other owners without objection by them and pursuant to the terms of the contract that the building should be erected and completed “to the entire satisfaction and under the direction of” such party.
    4. Appeal and error, § 1712*—when objections to instructions waived. Objections to instructions that are not argued are waived.
