MOISE, Justice (dissenting). While I fully appreciate that the result reached by the majority has support in authority cited in the opinion, I feel the better rule to be that applied by the Utah Supreme Court in Jones v. Grow Investment & Mortgage Co., 11 Utah 2d 326, 358 P.2d 909 (1961). Also, see Lavey v. Graessle, 245 Mich. 681, 224 N.W. 436, 64 A.L.R. 1477 (1929), and Annot. at 64 A.L.R. 1479, 1494; 7 Thompson, Real Property, 285, § 3183 (Rev.Ed. 1962); 21 C.J.S. Covenants §§ 101, 110; 20 Am.Jur.2d, Covenants, §§ 84, 90, 91. Application of that rule would require a reversal of the judgment. The majority having concluded the case should be affirmed, I hereby respectfully note my dissent. OMAN, J., Court of Appeals, concurs.
