1 Wheat. 151

J. & T. BARR v. LAPSLEY ET AL.

Supreme Court of United States.

March 6, 1816.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

This cause was argued by Jones, for the appellants and complainants, and Harner, for the respondents and defendants.

JOHNSON, J., delivered the opinion of the court.

The defendants deny that the circumstances proved ever rendered the agreement final and obligatory upon them; and this is the principal, perhaps the only, question the case presents.
