The court below gave judgment for the plaintiff, from which the defendant appealed.
¶3The decision of the cause depends mainly on matters of fact. The evidence is somewhat contradictory, as generally happens in cases of this kind.
¶4The court below concluded from the whole testimony, giving to each part such right as was considered reasonable, that the contract had been violated by the conduct of the defendant, and was no longer binding on the parlies, and } ° ° that the plaintiff was consequently entitled to recover as on quantum meruit the value of the work by him actually done and the costs of materials furnished. By a calculation in pursuance of these premises the sum due by the appellant was ascertained and judgment accordingly rendered, *■* JO oj We have examined the testimony and the law of the case, and are unable to discover any error either in the principles assumed or the conclusions of the court below.
