James H. Link Machinery Co. v. Continental Trust Co.
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided November 4, 1909 · Brown, Elkin, Fell, Mestrezat, Potter, Stewart
227 Pa. 37; 75 A. 985; 1910 Pa. LEXIS 598

James H. Link Machinery Co. v. Continental Trust Co.

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam,

January 3, 1910:

The court properly instructed the jury that the agreement under which the plaintiff claimed title to the machinery for which replevin was brought, was on its face a bailment. Whether at the time the agreement was entered into there was an understanding between the parties to it that there was a sale, and the agreement was intended to secure the price, and whether the agreement had been subsequently modified or superseded were questions properly submitted.

The judgment is affirmed.
