There could not be a recovery at law, upon the bond, against Pasteur's executors. One partner cannot bind another by bond. Plaintiff's relief was in this Court, under such circumstances. Plaintiff *Page 342 
failed at law, because he had chosen the wrong jurisdiction; and if he could now be told, "You cannot recover here, because of your failure at law," it would be very absurd.
Decree for plaintiff.
