The Supreme Court of Oregon so decided on November 16, 1915, holding an agreement on which J. W. Taggart claimed a commission from J. N Hunter and William Staatz tor the sale of timber lands in Crook coun tywas void because it did not state the consideration Taggart was to receive. The court held that a real estate broker cannot recover a commission unless he has a written memorandum, signed by his em ployer, specifying the land he is to sell and the compensation he is to receive for the sale. The memor andum in the case was either lost or destroyed, and secondary evi dence of its contents was submit ted. The court holds that because there was no price stipulated for the services of Taggart, the mem orandum was not sufficient to entitle him to a commission for making the sale.
