3 D.C. 424

Cannell v. Milburn

Decided April 15, 1829

<p>If the legal effect of the instrument be the same, whether the words constituting a variance be inserted or not, the variance is not material.</p>

Decided 1829-04-15

¶1The Court (Moesell, J. absent,) overruled the objection, and Cranch, C. J., referred to the case of Ferguson v. Harwood, 7 Cranch, 408, where the Supreme Court held, that if the legal effect of the instrument be the same, whether the words be inserted or not, the variance is immaterial.
