There is no evidence that the plaintiff made any payment on the mortgage she executed after she discovered that the house was not properly underpinned and had not passed city inspection as represented. Hence, there is no sufficient evidence of ratification to bar plaintiff\u2019s recovery.\nThe judgment entered in the court below is\nAffirmed.",
