    William N. EMERY, appellant, v. William P. LANGEVIN and Hugh J. McGinley, respondents.
    (Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Second Department.
    March 10, 1916.)
   This court is of opinion that there is sufficient evidence in the case to require submission to the jury of the question of false and fraudulent representations by'defendant McGinley as an inducing cause for the contract between plaintiff and defendant Langevin. As McGinley was the agent of Langevin, and the latter took the fruits of McGinley’s activities, the principal is liable for whatever fraud the agent may have perpetrated in the transaction. Taylor v. Commercial Bank, 174 N. Y. 181, 66 N. E. 726, 62 L. R. A. 783, 95 Am. St. Rep. 564; Mayer v. Dean, 115 N. Y. 556, 561, 22 N. E. 261, 5 L. R. A. 540. The judgment and order are therefore reversed on reargument, and a new trial is granted, costs to abide the event. Jenks, P. J., and Thomas, Carr, Rich, and Putnam, JJ., concur.
