    Thomas A. Farrell, Appellee, v. Money Almgren and F. O. Munson, Appellants.
    Gen. No. 6,569.
    (Not to he reported in full.)
    Abstract of the Decision.
    1. Brokers, § 48
      
       — what is not sale of farm by joint owners within reservation in contract with broker. The transfer of an undivided one-half interest in a farm hy one joint owner to the other is not a sale of the farm contemplated in a reservation in a contract by the joint owners with a broker for the sale of the property on commission, by which the owners reserve the right to sell the farm themselves without liability for commissions.
    2. Brokers, § 90* — when unnecessary for broker to show financial standing of person agreeing to lend money to purchaser. In an action by a broker for commissions for the sale of real estate, it is unnecessary to show the financial standing of the person with whom the purchaser had made arrangements to borrow the money to pay for the land and his ability to furnish the money in order to show that a purchaser had been procured who was ready and able to purchase the farm, especially where the testimony of the purchaser that he had the money to pay for the place was uncontradicted.
