How many misunderstanding arise
from the loose way in which business
matters are talked over, and then when
each party puts his own construction on
the conversation, the matter is dismissed
by each, with the words CAL Right, !"
CAN Right. ;" Frequently it turns out
/" all wrong" and becomes question
for the lawyers and the courts. More
than three-fourths of the litigation of
the country would be saved, if people
would put down their agreements in
writing. and sign their names to it.
Each word in our language has its pc
culiar meaning, and memory may, by
the change of its position in q sentence,
convey an entirely different idea from
that intended. When once reduced TO
writing ideas are fixed, and expensive
lawsuits avoided. 9
