A contract for the sale of land, stipulating a final deed execution date that passed without the deed being signed, was terminated by the vendor due to the purchaser's failure to meet the deadline; the purchaser argued the vendor's subsequent acceptance of a partial payment after the deadline constituted a tacit extension of the term, but the court upheld the trial court's finding that, absent an explicit agreement to extend the deadline, the mere acceptance of a partial payment did not automatically waive the benefit of the stipulated time limit, thereby justifying the vendor's unilateral termination of the agreement.
