The Court is unable to see any reason why this verdict and judgment should be disturbed. There was allegation, with evidence on the part of plaintiff tending to show, that for ten years before testator died plaintiff had performed faithful and onerous duties in caring for and looking after the testator and his aged wife, and for the last three years the said testator had lived in the home of plaintiff, *840and bis wife with him till she died, about six months before her husband; that when they came to plaintiffs house to live the wife was blind and he had consumption, and both were old, feeble, and practically helpless, requiring almost constant attention, and that the services were well worth $2,500.
There was also evidence on the part of plaintiff that their services were given and received in expectation of being paid for, and some of the testimony tended to show that they were given and received under a contract that the testator was to will plaintiff his property.
The jury found there was no contract to will the property, but that the services rendered by plaintiff to the testator for the last three years of his life were reasonably worth the sum of $1,500 and under the charge of his Honor that these services were given and received in expectation of being paid for.
