- 1900 James Cockcroft et al.The American And English Encyclopedia of Law A. & E. Encycl. of L., 2d Edition
- A charter-party provided for a certain rate of freight on the cargo intaken. The word "delivered" in the charter-party had been stricken out and the word intaken written in. The court said, in construing this provision: "If the number of tons delivered is conclusive evidence of the number of tons intaken, the careful erasure from the charter-party of the printed word delivered' and the insertion of the written word intaken was an idle ceremony. This would assume, and give to respondents the full benefit of the assumption, that the weight of the cargo is fixed by a definite, certain, indexible, and unchangeable standard; that there can be no error or fluctuation, loss of quantity, or diminution in weight; and that the exact number of tons which went in at Pomaron would come out here. The evidence discloses the fact that the weight of the intaken cargo and the output at the port of delivery seldom, if ever, agree."
