Plaintiffs sued defendants for services rendered and money paid out for defendants’ use. There was proof in the case that the account of plaintiffs had been rendered to defendants, and also proof tending to show acquiesence in the correctness of this account, at any rate no objection made to it for a considerable lapse of time.
