CONTRACTS.
Validity. The Law enforces 1. Contracts.[a] This is
the General Rule. The proposition is
true in more instances than it is
false.
2.
Evidence. A given Contract, if believed to have beem made+ + by those to whom it belongs the charge of enforcing it is committed,
will be accordingly be enforced, in what way
soever it be made appear to have been
made. This is the natural supposition.
3.
Expression. A Contract howsoever expressed, so that it
have been made, will be taken for what
it is understood to be mean: and as such
will be enforced. a Supposition equally
natural with the former.
4.
Expr The Doctrine of Contracts will therefore
contain consist of a list of the exceptions to the
above three propositions. Exceptions to
the first will compose the doctrine+ + concerning the validity of Contracts, which are valid and which not. in
the question What is a or good Contract is a valid one?
Exceptions to the 2d will compise the doctrine
of the Evidence required concerning
contracts: and exceptions to the 3d the
doctrine concerning the Expression.
NOTE.
The Law adopts each every contract as it is made, that it holds for valid
and makes it a part as it were of itself.
It makes the expression volition of the each contracting
party it's own volition: it turnsmakes that volition
the directory part of a Law, to which
it annexes a Sanctional one of it's own.
"I will give you thee this bread," says Pistor to
"Lanius, if you thou wilt give me that meet:"
"Agreed," says Lanius: " I will give you thee this
"meal if thou wilt give me that bread."
