Aiid the said parties of the flrst part, in consideration of the building, main- taining, and erection of the said mill, as aforesaid, covenants and agrees with the said party of the second part to sell and convey to him the following described real estate, to-wit," etc. �After the execution and delivery of the eontract, in November, 1875, Bellew takes it to Stephen Hubbard, shows him the eontract, and requests Hubbard to advance him money to build the mill. Hub- bard examines the eontract, reads it through, and on the strength of the above provision he agrees to advance money, and does in fact, during that same fall and winter, to-wit, in November and Decem- ber, 1875, and January and February, 1876, advance money and means to Bellew, to theaggregate in the amount of about $10,000, to build and complete the mill upon a 40 acres selected by Bellew. �It is claimed by the complainant that there was an agreement between Bellew and Smith, the agent, after Hubbard had begun to advance means to build the mill, that Bellew might mortgage for a larger sum than $6,500, and there Was proof taken to this efiect.
