“AN ACT OF GOD ,IN THE LEGAL SENSE ,MAY BE DEFINED AS AN

EXTRAORDINARY OCCURANCE OF CIRCUMSTANCES , WHICH COULD NOT HAVE
BEEN FORSEEN AND WHICH COULD NOT HAVE BEEN GUARDED AGAINST ,OR,
MORE ACCURATELY ,AS AN ACCIDENT DUE TO A NATURAL CAUSE ,DIRECTLY AND
EXCLUSIVELY ,WITHOUT HUMAN INTERVENTION ,AND WHICH COULD NOT HAVE
BEEN AVOIDED BY ANY AMOUNT OF FORSIGHT AND PAIMS AND CARE
REASONABLY TO BE EXPECTED OF THE PERSON SOUGHT TO BE MADE LIABLE FOR
IT,OR WHO SEEKS TO EXCUSE HIMSELF ON THE GROUND OF IT .THE OCCURANCE
NEED NOT BE UNNIQUE ,NOR NEED IT BE ONE THAT HAPPENS FOR THE FIRST
TIME ;IT IS ENOUGH THAT IT IS EXTRAORDINARY,AND SUCH AS COULD NOT
REASONABLY BE ANTICIPATED .
