The Court will enforce specific performance of a contract to purchase chattels, if damages will not be an adequate compensation.
But where the contract, although not actually fraudulent, was one in which the parties were not on an equal footing, the Plaintiff knowing, and the purchaser being ignorant, of the value of the thing sold, and the price appeared to be inadequate, the Court refused relief.
