No. 4760.
    William Henderson vs. Price, Hine & Tupper. John B. Lafitte & Co., and Morton, Bliss & Co., Intervenors.
    The clause of an answer, wherein is pleaded the general issue, must be taken in connection with other clauses which are equally a part of the defence, and the whole construed together.
    Words and sentences which rebut the idea of a partnership are as effectual a denial of it as any set phrase.
    Where the allegations of the petition are confined to liability, charged as* resulting from a partnership, this precludes a demand for liability resulting from the relations of principal and agent.
