Stalnaker, d/b/a Olen’s Truck Line, authorizing the operation of an auto transportation company as a contract carrier transporting fertilizer for Armour & Co. from its Jacksonville plant to all points and places in the state over irregular routes.

The contract between Stalnaker and Armour & Co. entered into on September 21, 1954 provides in section 8 thereof that it may be canceled by either party after 15 days notice in writing.

Stalnaker, which recites that Stalnaker verbally advised the company that he was no longer able to provide transportation service for them, that such service had not been supplied since February 1959, and that notice of cancelation of the contract in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 8 thereof was given.
