Contracts for sale of goods over $40 in value must be in writing or accompanied by part performance, or part payment. A contract may be made by letters or telegrams. Contracts made on Sunday (with a few exceptions) are illegal. Contracts contrary to public policy, or of an immoral character, are illegal. A contract for sale of land must be in writing. To make a good contract the names of the parties, the consideration, and the articles sold or matter agreed upon should clearly appear. Fraud vitiates all contracts. | ||
