Supreme Court of Vermont February 15, 1846 (Paris v. Vail)

lead-opinion

The opinion of the court was delivered by

Redfield, J.

As to the thousand dollars of stock originally put upon the premises by the lessor, and which the lessee covenanted to keep at all times during the term, so that the value should never fall below that sum, we do not find any serious difficulty in upholding the contract, according to the obvious intention of the parties.
