Mr. Morton could not close his eyes 

 to the information that was literally 

 staring him in the face, and then hold 

 the defendant liable because he did so. 

 In matters of contract one must ob- 

 serve what he has reasonable means of 

 knowing. The law for the protection 

 of persons even against fraud will not 

 be extended to those who, "having 

 the means in their own hands, neglect 

 to protect themselves. • • • The 

 law requires men, in their dealings with 

 «ach other, to exercise proper vigilance, 

 and apply their attention to those par- 

 ticulars which may be supposed to be 

 within reach of their observation and 

 judgment, and not close their eyes to 

 the means of information which are ac- 

 cessible to them." Mamlock v, Fair- 

 banks, 46 Wis. 415, 417, 418, 1 N. W. 

 167, 169, 32 Am. Rep. 716; Bostwick v. 

 Insurance Co., 116 Wis. 392, 400, 89 N. 

 W. 538, 92 N. W. 246, 67 L. R. A. 705. 



(6) And where a purchaser is put 

 upon inquiry as to the quality of the 

 thing offered for sale, he is bound to 

 know what is discoverable in regard 

 thereto by the exercise of ordinary 

 care, and he cannot "close his eyes to 

 defects which are before him, or to in- 

 formation which is at hand." Warner 

 v. Benjamin, 89 Wis. 290, 62 N. W. 179. 



(7) In the absence of fraud, "a man 

 cannot relieve himself from the obliga- 

 tion of a written agreement by saying 

 he did not read it when he signed it, 

 or did not know what it contained." 

 Deering v. Hoeft, 111 Wis. 339, and 

 cases cited, page 343, 87 N. W. 298; 

 Steffen v. Supreme Assembly of De- 

 fenders, 130 Wis. 485, 487, 110 N. W. 

 401. 



(8) The presumption arises from the 

 delivery and acceptance of a bill of 

 lading that the party receiving it as- 

 sented to its terms. Ignorance of its 

 contents "arising from failure to read 

 it, or to make some reasonable effort 

 to obtain information in that regard, 

 in the absence of any evidence of 

 fraud, * • * or of the use of any 

 means to deter the shipper from fully 

 understanding the contract, is not suffi- 

 cient to overcome it. ' ' There are nu- 

 merous authorities. 



(9) There is still another insur- 

 mountable difficulty in the way of 

 plaintiff's recovery. The jury found 

 that at the time of the sale there was 

 *'n general custom in the northwest,
