Syllabus

<p>Contract — Time For Completion. — Where parties enter into a contract to do a certain work, and no time is fixed for its performance, the law fixes that it must be completed in a reasonable time, and such reasonable time is that in which parties similarly circumstanced as the obligating party could do the work.</p> <p>Mr. Justice Pope, dissenting.</p>
