D. M. OSBORNE & CO. v. WALTHER Annotate this Case D. M. OSBORNE & CO. v. WALTHER 1902 OK 53 69 P. 953 12 Okla. 20 Decided: 07/18/1902 Supreme Court of Oklahoma D. M. OSBORNE & COMPANY v. FRITZ WALTHER. Error from the District Court of Canadian County; before C. F. Irwin, Trial Judge. Syllabus ¶0 1. CONTRACT--Written Warranty--Evidence of Defendant. D. M. Osborne & Co. sold Walther a harvester for $ 20 cash and two notes of $ 50 each. Walther failed to pay the notes when due, and Osborne & Co. brought suit to recover on the notes, and Walther set up an oral warranty and failure of the machine to comply with the terms of the warranty. Osborne & Co. replied that the machine was sold under an express written warranty, different in terms from the alleged oral warranty. On the trial Walther testified in one instance that the written warranty was not delivered to him until after the contract for the machine had been consummated and machine delivered, and on rebuttal testified that the written warranty was given to him at the time the notes were signed and contract made. Held, that his evidence should be construed unfavorably to him and that the written warranty was part of the agreement of sale as shown by his evidence, and that it was error to exclude it from the jury. 2.
