Opinion
The manifest meaning of the proposal is that prizes would be given in pursuance of awards, and not contrary thereto.
The persons who shall compose the jury of awards are stated in the offer. They were to constitute the tribunal to pass upon the merits of the paintings, and to decide to which prizes should be awarded. Unless so awarded by this jury no prize was demandable. There was, therefore, no error in entering judgment for the defendant on the demurrer.
Judgment affirmed.
