We think this case was properly disposed of at the circuit. The action was brought to recover damages for the alleged breach of a contract, whereby the defendant undertook to furnish to the plaintiff 10,000 gross of glove clasps at 29 cents a gross, to be delivered at the rate of 500 gross a week from the 1st day of January, 1884. The proof clearly established that the parties entered into such an agreement by correspondence; and, although the letters might leave some of the particulars in doubt, these- are made clear by the practical construction subsequently given to the contract by the acts of the plaintiff and the defendant. These acts leave no doubt that the parties contemplated that the goods should be manufactured by the vendor, and take the agreement out of the operation of the statute of frauds. Millar v. Fitzgibbons, 9 Daly, 505; Joy v. Schloss, 12 Daly, 533. They also show that the place of delivery was intended to be New York. The defendant insisted at the 'circuit, and argues here, that the correspondence which had been mentioned did not form a completed contract, for the reason that in accepting the plaintiff’s written offer he added the words: “Terms cash, as stated in our interview.” The learned trial judge held, however, and we think correctly, that the subsequent letters of the plaintiff which were put in evidence proved an acceptance of this modification, if it was a modification. The defendant delivered' to the plaintiff only 677 gross of the kind of glove clasps mentioned in the contract. The plaintiff ordered another sort of clasps, and also -machines for making clasps, from the defendant, and it is clear from the conduct of the parties that the contract upon which this suit is based was modified so far as the time for the delivery of the goods was concerned; but the proof does not sustain the defendant’s position that the plaintiff abandoned the agreement, and relinquished his rights thereunder, by the orders which he gave for the manufacture of other articles than those embraced in the contract. On the contrary, the evidence of his desire that the Consolidated Fruit-Jar Company should fulfill the agreement, and of the frequent communication of that wish to the secretary of the company, is clear, full, and convincing. In April, 1885, the defendant refused to furnish any more clasps to the- plaintiff. ■ The trial judge instructed the jury that a valid contract to manufacture and sell 10,000 gross of glove clasps existed; and had been broken by the defendant, and that the plaintiff was entitled to recover just what he lost by reason of the breach specified. No exception was taken to the rule as to the measure of damages which was laid down in the charge; and hence the amount of the verdict is not assailed in the argument of the learned counsel-for the appellant, who relies upon the proposition that the proof failed to establish the existence of a contract which could be the basis of any verdict at all against his client. In this view we are unable to concur. We have considered all the points made in the brief, and find no sufficient ground for disturbing the judgment, which must therefore be affirmed, with costs. All concur.
