Collins, J.Action to foreclose a lien claimed by plaintiff corporation for materials furnished by it to a subcontractor for use in an apartment-house erected by defendant corporation in the year 1888. On findings of fact and conclusions of law made by the court, judgment was entered in plaintiff’s favor, after a motion for a new trial had been denied. The appeal is from the judgment. Of the several assignments of error made by appellant, but one needs to be specially considered. The complaint, in addition to other essential allegations, set forth the making and filing, in seasonable time, of the verified *232statement, account, and claim for a lien, required by Gen. St. 1878, c. 90, § 6, as amended. The allegation as to the contents of this account or statement was full and complete, and in its answer defendant admitted the filing by plaintiff, on the day specified, of the statement, account, and affidavit mentioned in the complaint. It is apparent, therefore, that, as there was no issue made by the pleadings as to the making and filing of this instrument, it was wholly unnecessary for plaintiff to introduce, as it did upon the trial, proof of its contents, and that it had been duly filed with the register of deeds. It was immaterial testimony, of course, but harmless, and the defendant’s objections that it did not correspond with the proof, and that its record did not show that the written contract of the subcontractor with plaintiff was filed or recorded, were without merit. The paper claimed by defendant as a written contract under which plaintiff furnished the bricks, was an offer made by C. S. Leeds & Co., commission merchants in St. Paul, selling for the plaintiff and at least one other manufacturer, to furnish the subcontractor, during certain months, a specified quantity of sand-moulded bricks. The offer was accepted by the subcontractor. No price was mentioned or fixed in the paper; there was nothing about it to indicate that plaintiff was interested, or that its bricks were to be furnished under it. In fact, the undisputed testimony was that, as between plaintiff’s bricks and those of another manufacturer, the former were not determined upon as those to be used in the erection of defendant’s building until some weeks after the paper was signed by the parties. In no sense was it a contract for the sale or furnishing of the materials in controversy. The testimony as to the purchaser having been a subcontractor, and as to the number of thousand of bricks used by him, and that the same were furnished for defendant’s building, amply sustained the findings.
Judgment affirmed.
