It would seem to be a matter of course that when arbitrators are chosen to settle a copartnership, it is for them to say what does or does not constitute a part of the copartnership effects. Unless they have authority to settle this question, it would be impossible to make a settlement. Brown v. Brown, J Jones\u2019 Rep. 126, is decisive of this point.\nPer Curiam. Judgment affirmed.",

BRYAN GARDNER.\nWhen arbitrators are chosen to settle a copartnership, it is for them to say what does, or does not, constitute a part of the copartnership effects.\nActioN of Debt, tried before Caldwell, J., at the last Spring Term of Craven Superior Court.\nThe plaintiff declared on a submission bond, which recited that there had been a partnership between the plaintiff and defendant in the business of making and distilling turpentine in the State of Georgia, which had been dissolved, and certain matters of difference having arisen between them, they obliged themselves, in the bond declared on, to submit \u201call the said matters of controversy and all matters of difference in relation to, or in any wise concerning, said partnership with a final obligation to stand to, abide by and perform the the award of the arbitrators.\nThe breach assigned was that the defendant refused to perform the award of the arbitrators.\nThe defendant offered to prove that there was error and mistake in the award in the charge of $250 for two mules; for that they were the private property of the plaintiff, and not within the terms of submission, which only embraced co-partnership property.\nThe testimony was objected to and rejected, for which the defendant excepted.\nVerdict and judgment for the plaintiff. Appeal by the defendant.\nDomidl, for the plaintiff.\nJ. W. Bryan and Ilcmghton, for the defendant."
