Richard Thornton Wilson, Appellants v. Lewiston Mill Company, Respondent

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment for the plaintiffs, holding that the contract for 1,000 bales of cotton was a Maine contract governed by Maine law, that the Maine Statute of Frauds did not apply because no signed memorandum was provided, and that the defendant's December 5 letter was not a recognition of the contract.
