Opinion:
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.
