You entered into a contract with your nephew under which you gave him the power to buy you a new television. You know that your nephew is incompetent, but you want to give him an opportunity to make some money. The nephew buys a television on your behalf, paying the price with money you gave him. On his way to deliver the television to you he negligently drops it on the road and it smashes to pieces. Is your nephew liable to you for the cost of the television?
