        "text": "Mr. Justice Gary\ndelivered the opinion- of the Court.\nWilliam D. Gleason undertook to furnish the materials and do the work of the masonry of a house for the appellee.\nGleason procured materials, on his own account, from the appellant. An item of $43.63, in regard to which the brief of the appellant urges that it was procured upon the account of the appellee, is not so proved by any testimony definite enough to base a verdict upon.\nThe appellant\u2019s abstract says, \u201c Declaration, consisting of common counts.\u201d Without looking at the record we assume that a count for goods sold and delivered, and a count for money had and received, were in the declaration, and hold that if they were, they were of no use.\nIf the fact were that under Sec. 37, Liens, the appellant had any claim upon the appellee, it was to be prosecuted in an action against him and Gleason jointly, and upon a declaration consistent with the cause of action.\nThe appellee had bought nothing from the appellant\u2014 had received no money from any source for the use of appellant.\nThe \u201c Per Curiam \u201d opinion in Culver v. Fleming, 61 Ill. 498, is not enough to warrant a disregard of legal principles in cases now pending. That case was commenced before a justice and no form of pleading was in question; and the non-joinder of. the contractor (if he was not joined), is not alluded to in the opinion. Affirmed.",
