The defendants, doing business as the Glen Shirt
and Collar Company, having been solicited at their store in Boston by a salesman of the plaintiffs to buy kimonos of the kind and quality appearing by samples which he exhibited, gave the following order:

The order and acceptance constituted the contract. The plaintiffs selected from their stock fifteen dozen kimonos corresponding to the numbers on the order, which were transported from New York by the American Express Company in two shipments to the defendants’ store. But upon inspection the defendants rejected the first shipment of fourteen dozen as not corresponding with the sample, accepted the second shipment of one dozen, and tendered payment therefor, which the plaintiffs declined to receive and brought the present action to recover the price of all the kimonos. The jury, to whom by agreement of parties the question was submitted, found, that the goods shown by the style numbers 324, 354, 358, 356, 350 and 183 of the order did not correspond with the sample, and no question is raised that the offer to return was not made within a reasonable time.
It is contended by the defendants that the contract was divisible, conferring the right to reject kimonos which were not as warranted and to accept those which were in conformity with the sample. Barlow Manuf. Co. v. Stone, 200 Mass. 158, 160. P. Garvan, Inc. v. New York Central & Hudson River Railroad, 210 Mass. 275, 280. Cavanaugh v. D. W. Ranlet Co. 229 Mass. 366, 371. Sales act, St. 1908, c. 237, § 76, G. L. c. 106, § 65. The plaintiffs however urge that they were not bound to deliver by instalments; but the sale was on a single order for a round sum, the goods to be delivered at once. The defendants prdmised to pay for the whole, and not for each item treated separately, and the designation of a price for the different items did not constitute independent sales, and they could not accept in part and reject in part. Roach v. Lane, 226 Mass. 598. F. W. Stock & Sons v. Snell, 240 Mass. 427.
The sale, of course, was incomplete until delivery, and delivery to the express company as requested by them was as matter of law delivery to the defendants, and the contract was consummated *214in New York by the laws of which the rights of the parties are governed. Kline v. Baker, 99 Mass. 253, 254. Smith v. Edwards, 156 Mass. 221. Dr. A. P. Sawyer Medicine Co. v. Johnson, 178 Mass. 374. The plaintiffs introduced in evidence Mason v. Smith, 8 N. Y. Supp. 301. Simon v. Wood, 40 N. Y. Supp. 675, 676, and Stein v. La Plante, 169 N. Y. Supp. 429. The uniform doctrine of these decisions, which the defendants did not dispute, is that the contract in question was entire, and the defendants having accepted and retained part of the goods became bound to pay for the whole shipment. The sale was upon condition that on arrival the goods should conform in quality and style to the sample, and the defendants could reject the goods within a reasonable time if upon inspection any part of the goods did not conform to the implied warranty. Mason v. Smith, 8 N. Y. Supp. 301. See Alden v. Hart, 161 Mass. 576. The statutory law of New York (5 Consol. Laws, c. 41, § 150) which also was introduced provides, that
“1. Where there is a breach of warranty by the seller, the buyer may, at his election,
(a) Accept or keep the goods and set up against the seller the breach of warranty by way of recoupment in diminution or extinction of the price;
(b) Accept or keep the goods and maintain an action against the seller for damages for the breach of warranty;
(c) Refuse to accept the goods, if the property therein has not passed, and maintain an action against the seller for damages for the breach of warranty;
(d) Rescind the contract to sell or the sale and refuse to receive the goods, or if the goods have been received, return them or offer to return them to the seller and recover the price or any part thereof which has been paid.
“ 2. When the buyer has claimed and been granted a remedy in any one of these ways, no other remedy can thereafter be granted.”
It follows from the terms of the report that judgment is to be entered for the plaintiffs in the sum of “one hundred and eighty-three dollars” with interest from the date of the writ.
So ordered.
