No. 925.
    H. La Baum vs. David Johnson.
    Where a contract was entered into whereby one agreed to make certain payments at stated times, and upon the completion of all of them was to become the owner of certain land, but failing to make some of them was to be simply a tenant without right to purchase; held, that the simple failure to pay, without any formal putting in default, did not entail the loss of all the rights acquired in consequence of previous payments, nor forfeit the right to become the owner by making the last and final payments stipulated in the contract.
