It is quite impossible to go thiough the cases upon this branch of the statute of frauds. It is sufficient to say, in general terms, that, under this provision, the contract or memo- randum must express the... substance of the contract, with reasonable certainty, either by its own terms or by reference to some other deed, record, or other matter from which it can be ascertained xuith like rea- sonable certainty.

J. , continues : " The statute is intended as a shield. No particular forms are required, and it looks at the substance of the contract.
