Eastern States Farmers' Exchange, Incorporated v. Russell M. Peckham, D/B/A Orchard Hill Farm
U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit
Eastern States Farmers' Exchange, Incorporated v. Russell M. Peckham, D/B/A Orchard Hill Farm, 234 F.2d 488 (1st Cir. 1956)
1956 U.S. App. LEXIS 3718
Eastern States Farmers' Exchange, Incorporated v. Russell M. Peckham, D/B/A Orchard Hill Farm
Opinion
An action for damages was brought by a buyer of grain against the seller for breach of warranty resulting in the deaths of the buyer’s dairy cows due to poisoning. The only question presented is a factual one — whether the district judge was “clearly erroneous’'’ in finding that fourteen of appellees’ cows were poisoned and died as a result of eating grain bought from appellant containing some unwholesome or deleterious matter. The opinion of the district court contains a fuller statement of the facts. 134 F.Supp. 950. We find no error.
The judgment of the District Court is affirmed.
