Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>Bond for Deed — Bond Signed Without Reading — Obligors Bound By Its Terms. A bond for a deed conditioned for the performance of a real-estate contract had written therein a clause that the bond should be void as soon as court should sit and clear the title to the land. Two of the obligors testified in substance that they thought the instrument was to guarantee that the title should be cleared, and one of them who prepared the bond did not remember to have- read the printed part.
