Vendor and purchaser, \u00a7 167 \u2014when consideration for arrangement concerning rent shown. Evidence held to show that plaintiff and defendant had such interest in certain premises at and after a contract for the sale of same was entered into between plaintiff\u2019s assignor as purchaser and a certain stenographer in defendant\u2019s office as would furnish a sufficient legal consideration for defendant\u2019s promise to plaintiff to furnish plaintiff certain orders upon the tenants in possession of the premises to pay rent to the plaintiff, notwithstanding defendant was not the holder of the legal title, and notwithstanding plaintiff directed execution- of the deed under the contract to another person, where plaintiff and defendant had dealt with each other as having an actual interest in the premises.\nAppeal from the Municipal Court of Chicago; the Hon. Dennis W. Sullivan, Judge, presiding.\nHeard in this court at the October term, 1917.\nReversed and judgment here for plaintiff for $28.90.\nOpinion filed March 5, 1918.\nStatement of the Case.\nAction by James H.
