OPINION OF THE COURT
DAVIS, J.This is an action by appellees, as brokers, to recover from appellants a commission for the sale of sheep.' The defense was that, although appellees were the moving cause in making the sale, they did not sell the sheep at the best price obtainable, and that they had received a better offer which they failed to communicate to appellants. After hearing the evidence the trial court instructed the jury to return a verdict for appellees. Appellants assert that this was erroneous, claiming that there was some evidence to sustain their contentions, and that the jury should have been permitted to pass upon it.. A reading of the transcript fails to disclose any proof in support of the position of the appellants. While it is true that the purchaser did authorize appellees to resell the sheep on commission, this was not done until after the contract of purchase between him and appellants had been signed and a part of the purchase price paid. There is nothing to support the allegation that appellees could have sold the sheep, either before or after the making of the contract, at a higher price than was obtained. The price was in fact made by one of the appellants, not by ap-pellees, and he himself signed the contract. The instruction of the trial court was therefore proper. The judgment of the trial court is therefore affirmed; and. it is so ordered.
