It will be proper to consider ,
1 ,
the requisites of an agreement ;
2 ,
the kinds of agreements ;
3 ,
how they are annulled .
2 .-
1 .
To render an agreement complete six things must concur ;
there must be ,
1 ,
a person able to contract ;
2 ,
a person able to be contracted with ;
3 ,
a thing to be contracted for ;
4 ,
a lawful consideration ,
or quid pro quo ;
5 ,
words to express the agreement ;
6 ,
the assent of the contracting parties .

As to their form ,
agreements are of two kinds ;
1 ,
by parol ,
or ,
in writing ,
as contradistinguished from specialties ;
2 ,
by specialty ,
or under seal .
In relation to their performance ,
agreements are executed or executory .
An agreement is said to be executed when two or more persons make over their respective rights in a thing to one another ,
and thereby change the property therein ,
either presently and at once ,
or at a future time ,
upon some event that shall give it full effect ,
without either party trusting to the other ;
as where things are bought ,
paid for and delivered .
Executory agreements ,
in the ordinary acceptation of the term ,
are such contracts as rest on articles ,
memorandums ,
parol promises ,
or undertakings ,
and the like ,
to be performed in future ,
or which are entered into preparatory to more solemn and formal alienations of property .
Powell on Cont .
Agreements are also conditional and unconditional .
They are conditional when some condition must be fulfilled before they can have full effect ;
they are unconditional when there is no condition attached ;
4 .-
3 .
Agreements are annulled or rendered of no effect ,
first ,
by the acts of the parties ,
as ,
by payment ;
release -
accord and satisfaction ;
rescission ,
which is express or implied ;
1 Watts &
Serg .
442 ;
defeasance ;
by novation :
secondly ,
by the acts of the law ,
as ,
confusion ;
merger ;
lapse of time ;
death ,
as when a man who has bound himself to teach an apprentice ,
dies ;
extinction of the thing which is the subject of the contract ,
as ,
when the agreement is to deliver a certain horse and before the time of delivery he dies .
See Discharge of a Contract .
5 .
The writing or instrument containing an agreement is also called an agreement ,
and sometimes articles of agreement .(
q .
v .)
6 .
It is proper ,
to remark that there is much difference between an agreement and articles of agreement which are only evidence of it .
From the moment that the parties have given their consent ,
the agreement or contract is formed ,
and ,
whether it can be proved or not ,
it has not less the quality to bind both contracting parties .
A want of proof does not make it null ,
because that proof may be supplied aliunde ,
and the moment it is obtained ,
the contract may be enforced .
7 .
Again ,
the agreement may be mull ,
as when it was obtained by fraud ,
duress ,
and the like ;
and the articles of agreement may be good ,
as far as the form is concerned .

Guaranty ;
Parties to Contracts .
