Brown wrote Smith a le tte r In which he o ffer«!S m ith $200 for the set of books. Six months passed with no response by Smith. Brown lo cated another s im ila r set of the books which he purchased. A week later he received a le tte r from Smith, saying “ I accept your of(er of $200 fpr the set of books?’ When Brown Informed Smith that he had purchased thebooks elsewhere and did not want to purchase Smith’ s, Smith re fused to release Brown, c la im ing that a contract had been made by his acceptance of Brown’ s offer. Was there a contract? The answer Is ’ ’no.” There are various ways that an offer may be term inated. The person ma king the offer may withdraw it o r he may die, or the other party may reject the o f f e r eith er directly o r by a counter o ffer. An offer may also be term inated by lapse of tim e. That Is what happened here. Smith’s failu re to accept Brown’ s offer within a reasonable tim e te rm inated the offer as effectively as though Brown had withdrawn the offer specifically. building by the chief guide, M r.
