OF THE COMMUNICATION, ACCEPTANCE AND REVOCATION OF PROPOSALS
A proposal is revoked –

by the laps of the time prescribed in such proposal for its acceptance, or, if no time is so prescribed, by the lapse of a reasonable time, without communication of the acceptance;
(3)
by the failure of the acceptor to fulfil a condition precedent to acceptance; or
(4)
by the death or insanity of the proposer, if the fact of his death or insanity comes to the knowledge of the acceptor before acceptance.
