OPINION

By the Court,

Zenoff, J.:

Early in 1961 John Wiley and Bjame Pederson orally agreed that Pederson would assist in making certain improvements to five acres of Wiley’s Government Homestead property so that Wiley could get the government patent and then Pederson would buy it. The necessary work was done, including the building of a house on one acre of the property.
