CiegeBioh, .J,

This -action was brought , to recover back seventy-five dollars which the respondent; had-deposited, as security for the hpnest performance, by hum of his duties as employee of the appellant, , ■ , The record shows that he left their employment .by mutual consent upon the ninth, day of February, and. fhis action-was bégun on the twelfth-day of tire same month .and year.- ■

. There was - a strenuous contest .between the parties- . -upon 1 the trial as to whether the agreement was that a .period of sixty or ninety days must elapse after, the termination of-,the employment before the deposit, was tp.be returned-, , : ; The appellant now urges -that theaction w;as prematurely "brought in-;either event;- but;.this objection was not made upon the trial. In fact,, the -attention of the court was called away, from-it..by a conflict over a point that, was really immaterial. . Under the circumstances we do not feel bound to consider the objection upon appeal, especially, ,as it. does not appear that injustice has-resulted. . - , -The judgment is affirmed, with costs.
