HALL, Justice
(concurring):
In concurring, I deem it appropriate to point out that Beardalls assigned only their rights and benefits under the contract of sale, as distinguished from their obligations thereunder. Consequently, Beardalls remained obligated to perform (pay the contract price), and Wiscombes could look only to them for such performance, and not to *239Lockhart. This is so, because by the very nature of the assignment itself, Lockhart remained a stranger to the contract insofar as performance or tender of performance is concerned, and gained no contractual right in regard thereto.
