The opinion
THE COURT
(FITZHUGH, Circuit Judge,
absent) discharged the petitioner; it not being a binding within Act Assem. Md. 1793, c. 45. If the indenture is binding as an agreement, still it does not create the relative obligations of master and apprentice, under the act; and if it did, the 14th section forbids the assignment except in the case of the death of the master.
