Appeal, No. 46, Oct. T., 1918, by defendant, from decree of C. P. Allegheny Co., Jan. T., 1914, No. 2310, on bill in equity in case of J. C. Mc-Quaid and The Pittsburgh Swing and Furniture Company by J. C. McQuaid, General Manager, v. W. H. Sturgeon and J. H. Watt. Cross-bill in equity for an accounting. Before Carpenter, J. The case turned upon the existence of a partnership between J. C. McQuaid, W. H. Sturgeon and J. H. Watt. The court found as a fact that such partnership existed, and entered a decree accordingly. Error assigned was the decree of the court.

1Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam,

The learned chancellor below found that early in January, 1913, J. C. McQuaid, one of the plaintiffs in the cross-bill, and W. H. Sturgeon and J. H. Watt, defendants in it, formed a partnership, and that the same had never been legally dissolved. We have not been convinced that this is an erroneous finding and the decree based upon it is, therefore, affirmed at the cost of the appellant.
