Locust Mountain Water Co. v. Yorgey

Locust Mountain Water Co. v. Yorgey
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided May 7, 1888 · Clark, Gordon, Green, Parson, Williams
10 Sadler 317; 13 A. 956; 1888 Pa. LEXIS 1079

Locust Mountain Water Co. v. Yorgey

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam:

None of the assignments of error can be sustained. The case was fairly submitted, and the law well stated by the court below. That the parties to a written contract may alter or cancel it by parol has never been doubted by this court; and in this case, the evidence to prove the extension of the time for the completion of the work was abundant, as was also the proof of McNair’s power to assent thereto.

The judgment is affirmed.
