Any person competent to contract may appoint any other person his agent; the agent may do nothing in excess of the express authority conferred upon him by his principal, but within that authority he may do anything his principal might do; the public must acquaint itself with the extent of the authority of an agent with whom it does business; the agent must keep his principal informed of his acts; the acts of one not authorized may be ratified so as to make the relation of principal and agent complete; ordinarily an oral appointment of an agent is sufficient for all purposes except to perform some act which the law provides shall be done in writing, in which case an agency must be created by a writing; an agent may disobey his instructions in the interest of his principal where he has not time or opportunity to communicate with him.
