Townsville Maize Contract Dispute Goes to Jury
The case Wright, Heaton and Co. v. J. G. Fearnley centers on a March 1903 contract to deliver 90 tons of primest maize at £5 per ton. The plaintiff seeks £100 for 30 tons not delivered and loss from resales, while the defense argues no binding contract or acceptance existed and disputes weight terms and shipping arrangements at Cairns and Townsville.
