Holtz, s'Jacob & Co. and that such partnership existed at the times referred to or the times of the transactions reforred to in paragraphe 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the statement of claim. The traumotions referred to in the said last-mentioned paragraph of the statement of claim formed part of the sal partnership affaire or dealings. No account had been taken and 'no balines struck of the partnership affaire or dealings. Defendant would object that the plaintiffs claim was not maintainablo al law on the ground that it was a mátfor involving the said partnership accounts Plaintiff, in his reply to the statement of defence, stated inter alia that defendant aloue was compradore to the firm.

Evidence was given.

Vis Lordship, in delivering judgment, said that as regards the agreement. itself it seemed fairly clear to him that it was an agreement by which the plaintiff at the request of the defend- nut besas surety for him as compradors to Holtz, s'Jacob & Co. Then came the questio o of what considération was to be shown to the plaintiff for having undertaken so arduous s position as surety. It might have been that, during the time he allowed these mortgage deeds to be charged, he was to hars say 8500 a year in respect of the unknowa liability attached to them; instead of which the ugreement provided that the rosidae of the profit, after deducting the compradore offe expenses, was to be divided into three shares. One share was to go to ibo man who had been the previous compradore. The other two shures were sub-divided into ten klares.

Defendant in his defence said that the trans actions were partnership transactions and that the partnership extended from July, 1897; and he said that what constituted the partnership was that deed His Lordship was bound to say that taking it as it stood he had come to the conoltision that, that was not an agreement which formed a partnership. He did not think it was contemplated by the parties that this surety in addition to becoming liable was to share losses and profits in the same way as an ordinary partner in the matter. It was contemplated that he was to be surety for the carrying out by the compradore of all by duties, which, his Lordship took it, included the adjustment of all his mocounts with Holta & 'Jacob at the termination of his employment
