Syllabus

<p>Contract — Evidence—Conduct of parties as construction.</p> <p>When a writing is plain and free from ambiguity, it will not be construed by the acts and admissions of the parties in reference to it, yet where the intention is obscure or doubtful, no evidence is more reliable or entitled to greater consideration as manifesting what that intention was than the acts and conduct of the parties themselves.</p>
