Supreme Judicial Court of Maine July 1, 1852 (McLellan v. Longfellow)

Howard, J.

The parties had owned a vessel in. equal parts, and the defendant’s share had been sold, when the claims included in this suit were presented to him, and he *553admitted them to be correct and due. But the admission is now restricted to the personal claim, and the controversy is solely upon that portion of the account which embraces the bills against the owners of the vessel.
