Moreover, if the buyer has been sued by his sub-buyer and has had to pay damages and costs, he is entitled to claim from the seller the total sum he has had to pay in respect of damages and costs as well as a sum in respect of his own costs.(Atiyah, 5th ed., 1975, p. 309)

"Close Line Search". This is a last resort procedure, designed to assure success using sight alone.(...) This mode amounts to a line search with spacing much reduced, say to 15 feet or less. The objective is to inspect every square foot of ground in the elemental area assigned. Search boundary control must be precise. One method is by arranging for the end men of the line to "pay out" string behind them as they proceed-hence, the sometimes heard term "string search".
