In an action for commissions for the sale of land, evidence that plaintiff invited the attention of the public to the property, and used time in active negotiations for its purchase, and that the final purchase resulted from a continuation of the pre-existing negotiations, unaffected by the broker's acts, was insufficient to sustain a verdict for plaintiff. Sexton v. Goodrich, 131 Wis. 146, 111 N. W. 206.
