Opinion
Upon these answers, the court are of opinion that the trustees must be discharged.

As to the others, the contract was entire, and was not completed ; and no pro rata wages were earned. At the time of the service of the writ, therefore, there was no subsisting debt from the trustees to the principal defendant, either due, or to become due and payable afterwards.
