## Opinion text

Pearson, J.
"We concur with 1ns Honor, that whether the
two mules
were the private property of Samuel Masters or belonged to the copartnership, was a question embraced within the terms of the submission, and the parties were concluded, in respect thereto, by the award. 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’ Rep. 126, is decisive of this point.
Per Curiam. Judgment affirmed.
