CARDINE, Justice,
dissenting.
The purchase offer and acceptance agreement indicates only that appellant and appellee are the purchasers of this real estate. From the writing itself, it is impossible to ascertain who should pay, whether there was a gift, or how title should be held. Appellant was lawfully entitled to introduce parole evidence, and the district court should have allowed it to arrive at the intent of the parties to this transaction. This is not to say that appellant should prevail — only that parole evidence offered by him should have been received and considered by the court. For this reason, I would reverse and remand.
