Whether the town will oarry the ones any fuller remains for the council to deold.. The text of the jadg- trent Is as follows : judgment ((1.) 00 appeal by plaintiff from order of • Division- al Court (20 C L.T. 0e. N. 303) reversing judgment of Armour, C.J,0 The plaintiff, tendering for • .apply of 1,000 tons of coal for the defendants' water works, wrote :-- "I will deliver in bond Into the coal shed at pumping station or grounds adjaoent thereto, where directed by you, 1,000 tons, oto." The tender was sooepled for 800 tons, and a untrue mooted by the Mayor and Clerk, but without previous resolution of Council, was drawn up and executed, by which plaintiff agreed to deliver 000 tone "at the coal shed," etc. Armour, (',.1 O,, held at the trial that all the ooal whioh was left at the dock near the pumping station was delivered "at the coal shed,` within the intent and meaning of the oontraot; that ".t," as used In the oontraot, meant. "i eer to." The Divisional (hurt held upon the evldenoe that the cosi to question was not delivered at the oleos designated to the oontreat, and, per Boyd, L'., that the word "at" meant rather within a plane than wlthnut t that the oases cited merely showed the meeninp of the word under the oircumet•noes of each nue, inch words taking thee o0loring from thlr oircom• stances and situation, sod, per Meredith, J that If .roe..ary ten onntraot Should be reformed, as tee meaning set the parties was elect. Held, Maclennan, .1 A., dlseenting, that the 0oetnot Si reeled was not Intended to vary the term. r f the tender. The pro vision In the tender that plaintiff was to deliver '`into the opal shed," etc , did not entitle defon4anli to direct attheir pleasure plaintiff to plass entre coal In the shed and some on r he ed)acent grounds, or the whole In the sheds or on the grounds.
