Webster Inc. dealt in automobile accessories at wholesale. Although he manufactured a few items in his own factory, among them windshield wipers, Webster purchased most of his inventory from a large number of other manufacturers.
In January, Webster entered into a written contract to sell Hunter two thousand windshield wipers for $4,900, delivery to be made June 1.
In April, Webster's factory burned to the ground, and Webster failed to make delivery on June 1.Hunter, forced to buy windshield wipers elsewhere at a higher price, is now trying to recover damages from Webster. Will Hunter be successful in its claim?
