The court's holding and decision will be displayed here.

This section contains the nature of the case and procedural background.

Brown (P) purchased from Oliver (D) land on which stood a hotel operated by a tenant. There was ample oral evidence that the sale included the hotel furniture owned by D. The instrument of sale made no mention of the hotel furniture. At trial, D contended that the writing alone governed the transaction and parol evidence precluded consideration of evidence of the furniture. The trial court allowed the parol evidence and D appealed.
