GIEGERICH, J.

The plaintiff is a mortgage broker, and sues to recover damages for the breach of an agreement to pay for his services in procuring a loan for the defendant, which loan was to be secured by the bond of the latter and by a mortgage upon property the legal title to which was in the defendant’s wife, although the defendant practically owned it.
