Haris submitted a bid of $10,769.75 for the work on specifications calling for 30 yards of concrete. The job required 300 yards. I A. W. Grosvenor, county surveyor, it is claimed, Is responsible for the I error in the specifications. Harris claims that he was told to go ahead with the work, and that the error would be corrected so that he could secure payment.
