Description
This is an action for specific performance of an alleged contract to convey real property.

He received $250 in consideration of this option. The 30 days elapsed and on December 14, 1950, Armstrong paid Johnson an additional sum of $300 and obtained a written "extension" of the original option agreement for a period stated as lasting until a preliminary title report which Armstrong had already ordered should be completed by a title company.
