— This cause was submitted to tbe court without a jury, and a verdict and judgment was rendered for tbe defendant. Tbe plaintiff has appealed, and assigned for error that tbe judgment is without evidence to support it. There were no instructions asked or given, and no exceptions saved on tbe trial *637concerning the admission or exclusion of evidence. The matter complained of requires a brief reference to the facts.

The action was on account for gravel, alleged to have been sold to the defendant by the plaintiff, and not to have been paid for. The defendant admitted that he received the gravel, but denied that he bought it from the plaintiff. He averred that he purchased the gravel from one Lowe, and had paid for it, and that Lowe was either a partner of the plaintiff in the sale of gravel, or was a part owner of the land from which the gravel was taken. It appears from a written memorandum of the trial judge, which we find in the record, that the case was disposed of on the theory that the plaintiff and Lowe were tenants in common of the land from which the gravel came, and that, whether the plaintiff and Lowe were partners or not in the sale of the gravel, the latter, as a part owner of the land, had as much right to sell gravel from it as the plaintiff had, and that, therefore, the defendant was protected in the purchase. In this we think the court was right, and, under this view of the case, the judgment is well sustained by the evidence. A ’deed from the plaintiff to Lowe, conveying an undivided interest to Lowe, was read in evidence. There is some question on the evidence, whether the defendant had the right to treat Lowe and the plaintiff as partners, or whether there was substantial evidence tending to prove an actual partnership. But we will not discuss this branch of the case, because the judgment can be sustained on the other ground.

With the concurrence of the other judges, the judgment will be affirmed. It is so ordered.
