Syllabus

<p>Held that the instrument involved in this case was an actual contract for purchase and sale of the land described therein and not merely an option which expired at the time specified therein.</p> <p>Accepting a lease of property described in a contract for sale thereof, does not amount to an estoppel against enforcing the contract, if the instrument recognizes an outstanding dispute and provides that rights on either side shall not be affected.</p>
