If I checked my sources correctly this contract WOULD be binding and WOULD hold up in a court of law if it was signed by both parties in front of a notary.

To determine whether the contract between Frank Farmer and Fanny Farmer is enforceable, we need to analyze the elements of a valid contract.

1. Agreement: An enforceable contract requires an offer and acceptance. In this case, Frank Farmer made an offer by agreeing to pay Fanny Farmer $500 a month, and Fanny Farmer accepted the offer by continuing her farm and home chores.

2. Consideration: For a contract to be enforceable, both parties must provide something of value. In this case, Frank Farmer promised to pay $500 a month, and Fanny Farmer continued performing her farm and home chores.

3. Intent: Both parties must have the intention to create a legally binding agreement. By putting the agreement in writing, it shows that both Frank and Fanny Farmer intended to create a legal contract.

4. Capacity: Both parties must have the mental capacity to understand the terms of the contract and enter into an agreement. Assuming Frank and Fanny Farmer are mentally capable adults, this element would likely be met.

Based on the information provided, it seems that the contract between Frank and Fanny Farmer meets all the necessary elements for enforcement.
