LACOMBE, Circuit Judge. We are satisfied that this is an entire contract, not seven separate contracts, and therefore not within the exception which admits parol evidence to show that a written contract is not a contract at all, because it never went into effect; some unexpressed condition precedent not being fulfilled. The decree is affirmed, with interest, but without costs, upon the opinion of the district judge and the report of the commissioner.

Citator

UpLaw has not yet analyzed Morris v. Chesapeake & O. S. S. Co.. The absence of a flag is not a finding that it is good law.
