Syllabus

<p>Bescission of contract—when money paid on purchase may be recovered bach. Where a sewing machine is sold, to be paid for in installments, but a different one sent to the buyer, which does not work well, and the agent promises to replace it with another one, which he afterwards refuses to do, and on refusal to complete payments the agent replevies the machine, without offering another one, this may be regarded as such an act as to authorize the purchaser to rescind the contract, and recover back the payments made on the purchase.</p>
