Opinion

The jury, contrary to the charge of the presiding judge who tried the cause, allowed the defendants the amount of their demand.

This was a motion for a new trial, which was ordered without argument, and that too without costs ; as the jury did wrong in allowing the discount; the law being very clear, that the private debt of one copartner, cannot be set off against a copartnership demand.

Present, Grimke, Waties and Bay.
