The opinion of the court was delivered by

Ybazey, J.

In pronouncing the judgment of the court in Whiting v. Earle, 3 Pick. 201, Parker, Ch. J., said: “ We go so far as to say, that where a minor son makes a contract for his services on his own account, and the father knows of it and makes no objection, there is an implied assent that the son shall have his earnings.” .
