Packer owned and operated a fruit cannery in Southton, Illinois. He stored a substantial amount of finished canned goods in a warehouse in East St. Louis, Illinois, owned and operated by Alden, in order to have goods readily available for the St. Louis market. On March 1, he had ten thousand cans of peaches and five thousand cans of apples in storage with Alden.
On the day named, he borrowed $5,000 from Alden, giving Alden his promissory note for this amount due June 1, together with a letter authorizing Alden, in the event the note was not paid at maturity, to sell any or all of his goods in storage, pay the indebtedness, and account to him for any surplus. Packer died on June 2 without having paid the note. On June 8, Alden told Taylor, a wholesale food distributor, that he had for sale, as agent of the owner, ten thousand cans of peaches and five thousand cans of apples. Taylor said he would take the peaches and would decide later about the apples. A contract for the sale of ten thousand cans of peaches for $6,000 was thereupon signed ‘‘Alden, agent for Packer, seller; Taylor, buyer.'' Both Alden and Taylor knew of the death of Packer. Delivery of the peaches and payment were made on June 10.
On June 11, Alden and Taylor signed a similar contract covering the five thousand cans of apples, delivery and payment to be made June 30. On June 23, Packer's executor, having learned of these contracts, wrote Alden and Taylor stating that Alden had no authority to make the contracts, demanding that Taylor return the peaches, and directing Alden not to deliver the apples. Discuss the correctness of the contentions of Packer's executor.
