    "head_matter": "W. J. Sickafus, Appellant, v. Waldo Vickrey, Appellee.\n(Not to be reported in full.)\nAppeal from the Circuit Court of Moultrie county; the Hon. John McNutt, Judge, presiding. Heard in this court at the April term, 1917.\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed July 14, 1917.\nStatement of the Case.\nAction in the justice court by W. J. Sickafus, plaintiff, against Waldo Yickrey, defendant, to recover $100 claimed to be due him as commission for the exchange of defendant\u2019s farm in another State for residence property of a third person in a town in which both defendant and such third person resided, as well as plaintiff. From a judgment for defendant in the Circuit Court, after appeal by plaintiff from a judgment in the former\u2019s favor in the justice court, plaintiff appeals.\nAbstract of the Decision.\n1. Trial, \u00a7 68 \u2014when offer of evidence is untimely. The offering by plaintiff of evidence of the value of the services, after testifying to an alleged express contract for commissions for the exchange of real property, and before denial by the defendant of the making of the contract, is improper as it is then merely argumentative.\n2. Brokers, \u00a7 88*\u2014when evidence is sufficient to sustain verdict. In an action by a broker for commissions for exchange of real estate, where the testimony was conflicting as to the existence of a contract, evidence held sufficient to sustain a verdict for defendant.\nC. R. Patterson and E. J. Miller, for appellant.\nMcLaughlin & Thompson, for appellee.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to XV, and Cumulative Quarterly, same topic and section number."
