An infant may be bound to serve as an apprentice, by indenture, according to the directions of an act of the year 1740, P. L. 176. The agreement on which this action is founded is not pursuant to the act, and, therefore, cannot support any right to the services of the infant. It is a voidable agreement, and the de. fendant, after coming of age, chooses to avoid it.

New trial granted.
