Hurd, decided at the present term of the court. The same facts are presented by this record, the parties being reversed. We held, in that case, that the parties who had been defaulted were not competent witnesses to charge the defendant as a copartner.\nWe so hold in this case. The judgment is reversed and the cause, remanded.\nJudgment reversed.",
