John Turnbull sued H. G. Cady for the price of lumber furnished or delivered to the defendant under the following contract:
“Articles of agreement made and entered into this 24th day of March, 1899, between John Turnbull, of the county of Lincoln, and State of Kentucky, of the first part, and Henry G. Cady, of Pine Bluff, Ark., Witnesseth: That the first party hereby *131agrees to deliver on or before June 1, 1899, at.station, on.in the State of Kentucky, one carload of black walnut gunstocks,- containing 2,500 or more gunstocks per car, for which said party of the second part agrees to pay first party forty cents each as follows: Thirty cents each upon consignment to United States armory at Springfield, Mass., the balance to be promptly paid upon receipt of and in accordance with the inspector’s reports from said armory, which report shall accompany said final payment of forty cents each for all gunstocks so accepted by said armory, second party paying all freight. Said gunstocks shall be straight grained, free from sap, knots, checks, wormholes or other visible defects, shall be two and three-eighths inches thick throughout; one and three-fourths inches wide at small end, and six inches wide at butt; length fifty-two inches; if green, ends to be painted and conformed to pattern furnished by second party.”
In compliance with this contract, plaintiff shipped for the defendant, at Crab Orchard Station, in Lincoln County, Kentucky, on the Louisville & Nashville Railroad, 2,500 gunstocks, or more, to the United States armory at Springfield, Mass. According to the preponderance of the evidence, they were of the description stipulated in the contract. The jury in this case so found, and returned a verdict for the plaintiff for $765, and the defendant appealed.
Two thousand and five hundred gunstocks were shipped to the United States armory at Springfield, Mass. There was no controversy about the shipment being in time, the parties agreeing upon the time when they were actually shipped. The thirty cents each to be paid on consignment to the United States armory was not made dependent by the contract upon any inspection, but upon the gunstocks 'shipped being such as are described in the contract. The ten cents for each, the remainder of the stipulated price, was to be paid upon the receipt of the inspector’s report from the armory. The thirty cents were due before any inspection could be made at the armory, and, of course, was not dependent upon it. The jury allowed only thirty cents for each gunstock delivered, and there is evidence to sustain their verdict.
Judgment affirmed.
