Where no time is fixed by the parties for the return of property sold In
accordance with Rule 3 of this section, the purchaser must give notice of
his rejection within a reasonable time; where a horse is purchased in
accordance with Rule 3 and the purchaser agrees to let the seller know on
Monday whether the horse suits, but merely keeps the horse without rejec-
tion until it dies on the following Wednesday, the purchaser is liable for
the horse. Rice v. Dinsmore, 124 Md. 281
Where a contract of sale gives the buyer the right to refuse the goods if
they do not meet a certain test, and the goods are burned up after they
have been put in a car on the buyer's siding and bill of lading turned over
to the buyer who has paid for three-fourths of the estimated value of the
material, but the goods have not yet been tested by the buyer, there being
no undue delay in arranging such test, the loss falls on the seller. Evi-
dence. Usage. Agri Mfg. Co. v. Atlantic Fertilizer Co., 129 Md. 46.
The fact that the buyer of a horse communicates to the seller that the
horse is slightly ill and being attended by the buyer's veterinarian is not
evidence of the performance by the buyer of his agreement to notify the
seller of his acceptance or rejection of the horse. Dinsmore v. Rice, 128
Md. 209.
