Smith, who was acting for Stuart, made false representations to them as to the value of the land, and that Smith, who was pretending to represent defendants, did not disclose to them that this and adjoining lands were being purchased for a contemplated suburban village with rapid transportation service to Detroit via the Pere Marquette railway.””
