Ignorance is distinguishable from error .
Ignorance is want of knowledge ;
error is the non -

They are generally found together ,
and what is said of one is said of both .

When considered as to their object ,

2 .
When examined as to their origin ,
they are voluntary or involuntary ,
3 .
When viewed with regard to their influence on the affairs of men ,

Ignorance is either voluntary or involuntary .
1 .
It is voluntary when a party might ,
by taking reasonable pains ,
have acquired the necessary knowledge .
For example ,
every man might acquire a knowledge of the laws which have been promulgated ,
a neglect to become acquainted with them is therefore voluntary ignorance .

matter in question ,
and which so influences the parties that it induces them to act in the business .
For example ,
if A should sell his horse to B ,
and at the time of the sale the horse was dead ,
unknown to the parties ,
the fact of the death would render the sale void .

Non -
essential or accidental ignorance is that which has not of itself any necessary connexion with the business in question ,
and which is not the true consideration for entering into the contract ;
as ,
if a man should marry a woman whom he believed to be rich ,
and she proved to be poor ,
this fact would not be essential ,
and the marriage would therefore be good .
