1 Ark. Terr. Rep. 49

William Drope, complainant, vs. John Miller, defendant.

Issue directed out of chancery to ascertain whether a partnership, asserted by complainant and denied by defendant, was formed as alleged.

April, 1827.

— Order to try disputed facts, determined before Benjamin Johnson and Thomas P. Eskridge, judges.

Opinion of the Court. — In this case it is alleged by the complainant that he formed a partnership in trade with the defendant, in April, 1819, which fact is denied by the defendant.

It is, therefore, ordered that a jury come at the next term on the law side of this court to ascertain by their verdict, whether there was or was not a partnership in trade, formed by said Drope and Miller, in April, 1819, and that the verdict of the jury be immediately certified to this court as a court in chancery.
