Head Matter:
Vos and Graves v. The United Insurance Company, 1 C. C. E. p. vii.
Breach of Warranty of Neutrality; Sailing for Blockaded Port.
In this case the Supreme Court held that the mere sailing of a vessel for a port understood to be blockaded, was a breach of neutrality, and of itself sufficient to avoid the policy.-

Opinion:
But the Court of Errors reversed the judgment of the Supreme Court, holding that as by the law of nations, the mere sailing for a blockaded port, was not of itself just cause for condemning a peutral vessel and cargo, it was not such a breach of neutrality as to avoid a policy of insurance.
