Exercise 19

Crump bought a TV antenna and tower from Lair for $900, payable in monthly installments of $7.50. The set was installed and Lair agreed to maintain it, but the contract was silent about insurance or repairs. Nine months later, the set was struck by lightning and badly damaged. Who was responsible for the loss? (Lair Distributing Co. v. Crump, 48 Ala. App. 72, 261 S.2d 904)
