From 1 U.S. 210 - Pollard v. Shaaffer · 1789Most cited · 3 citing opinions
a man's covenant shall not be strained so as to be unreasonable, or that it was improbable to be so intended, without necessary words to make it such; for it is unreasonable to suppose a man should covenant against the tortious acts of strangers, impossible for him to prevent, or probably to attempt preventing.
