Illinois Supreme Court April 15, 1858 (Gale v. Dean)

Caton, C. J.

The court properly decided that there was no variance between the contract declared on and the one offered in evidence.

The measure of damages, in this case, was not the value of the land when the contract was made, but its value at the time of the breach of that contract. Here no time was specified when the title from Tuller should be obtained.
