An action on a written contract under seal enjoys a long statute of limitations because "the writing is clear evidence in permanent form of the terms of the agreement...." 18 Williston, Contracts § 2020, at 678 (3d ed. 1978). A misrepresentation of the sort here alleged is not written into the agreement and such evidence as the plaintiffs proffer is entirely oral.
