Indian Evidence Act, 1872
Section - 95 - Evidence as to document unmeaning reference to existing facts
Evidence as to document unmeaning reference to existing facts.
95. When language used in a document is plain in itself, but is unmeaning in reference to existing facts, evidence may be given to show that it was used in a peculiar sense.
Illustrations
A sells to B, by deed, "my house in Calcutta".
A had no house in Calcutta, but it appears that he had a house at Howrah, of which B had been in possession since the execution of the deed.
These facts may be proved to show that the deed related to the house at Howrah.
