Syllabus

<p>Deed — Description of property — Parol evidence — Question for fury.</p> <p>Where a written agreement for the sale of land provides that there should go with the property “the barn frame lumber cut and sawed now on the farm,” and there is nothing in the writing to show what was the meaning of the words barn frame lumber, and the evidence does not show that they had any trade meaning, parol evidence is admissible to show the condition of things on the ground at the time and the character and quantity of the lumber on the farm, and if the evidence is conflicting, it is for the jury to determine what the parties meant by the use of these words.</p>
