Lead Opinion
Wells, J.,

orally.—An infirmity in this contract is, that it fixed no time during which the plaintiff’s services'should be rendered to the defendant. Suppose the plaintiff had gone to Hallowell, and tendered his services, there was nothing to prevent the defendant from discharging him at the end. of a single day. In such a contract there is no value.

Exceptions sustained.
