Callaway v. Jones & Quattlebum
Callaway v. Jones & Quattlebum
Opinion of the Court
By the Court.
delivering the opinion.
The judgment of this Court is, that the injunction in this case should not have been dissolved, the answer not having sworn off the equity of the bill.
[1.] As to the womb disease alleged to have existed in one of the women at the time of the sale, the denial is, and of necessity must be, a mere matter of opinion — no disease is more subtle; none effects the whole system so completely; and consequently, none is more difficult to detect. And as to the the defect in the eye, of the other woman, while the fact is admitted, it is insisted, that the blemish was obvious, and was not, therefore, covered by the general warranty of soundness.
