RUSSELL, Justice.
In this action for the recovery of a real estate broker's commissions, the dispositive question is whether commissions are earned where a purchaser acquires all the stock of the corporate landowner, rather than taking title to its land by conveyance. We conclude that such a transaction is not a sale of land in the circumstances of the case before us and reverse a judgment for broker's commissions.
