Opinion
The bill in this case was for an account and was filed by the purchaser at a sheriff’s sale of whatever interest the defendant in the execution had as a partner in a building operation. The court found that he was not a partner and that he had no interest. The correctness of this finding depends on the credibility of witnesses, of which the court who saw and heard them had a much better opportunity to judge than we have. What has been so often said, that the findings of fact by the court will not be reversed unless error clearly appears, is especially applicable to this case.
The decree of the court dismissing the bill is affirmed at the cost of the appellant.
