GENERAL COURT,
MAY TERM, 1793.
Robert Dorsey against James Jeoffray.
CAVE AT to an award. The reasons for setting aside the award were, 1st. The want of notice; 2d. Surprise by the information of an arbitrator. That under the act of 1778, c. 21. s. 9. surprise was sufficient to set aside the award, and so was the want of sufficient notice.

Opinion:
The Court
determined that no reason was good om caveat, but those mentioned in the act of assembly, or which were apparent on the face of the award.
