Clark v. Schooner New Hampshire

Opinion of the Court

The Court,

Brown, District Judge,

held that there were two contracts, one to carry and one to sell, the first a maritime contract; the other a land contract. That the vessel had completed the maritime contract when the goods were delivered at the port of Detroit. The contract to sell was with the Master alone, making him consignee ; and, being a land contract, in which the vessel was not concerned,, the court had no jurisdiction.
