Syllabus

<p>(a) A contract between a natural-gas company and a glass-works company provided that the former should furnish gas for fuel to the latter, for a period of three years, if its wells were reasonably capable thereof, saving to other consumers a similar right of supply, and to domestic consumers, particularly, the first right over manufacturing companies :</p> <p>1.
