¶1Action by replevin commenced before justice of the peace for possession of some baled hay and a road scraper. Verdict for defendant in the justice court, plaintiff appealed and again lost in the circuit court and has appealed to this court.
¶2On November 12, 1909, defendant had a public sale of certain personal property and at such sale plaintiff bid off some baled hay and a road scraper, amounting in all to $41.05. By the terms of the sale, ten months time was to be given on all sums over $5 by the purchaser giving note with approved - security. Defendant asked for two securities on each note. Plaintiff signed a note with only one surety and left it with the clerk of the sale who afterward gave it to defendant but he refused to receive it in payment for the property and some twelve to fifteen days afterward sent it back to plaintiff. Plaintiff testified that defendant agreed to accept the note with the one surety before he executed it but this was denied by defendant. Plaintiff offered evidence tending to prove that both the plaintiff and the surety on' the note which he signed were' solvent at the time. Defendant testified that he did not know as to their solvency and that he wanted two securities on each note and was depending on the honor of the men.
¶3The issues involved in this case were purely issues of fact. It is conceded that title to the property *459did not pass to plaintiff when he bid it off at the sale and conld not pass until he tendered a note which met the requirements of the terms of the sale. The defendant had reserved to himself the right to pass on the sufficiency of the surety on the notes and there is no testimony that he acted arbitrarily in rejecting the note signed by the plaintiff or that his requirement that two sureties should be furnished upon each note was unreasonable. The only issue submitted to the jury by the instructions was the question whether or not defendant had approved the note given by plaintiff and on this issue the jury found for defendant. This verdict was supported by substantial testimony and is binding upon us. Judgment affirmed.
