Syllabus

<p>1. Partnership—notice of dissolution. Partners who give no notice of a dissolution, but continue individually their business at the same place, can not set up their dissolution against one who deals with them, supposing them to be still in co-partnership.</p> <p>2. Set-off—when not affected by promise made by one party to an account. A person owing a balance upon account, and paying in trade a greater sum, is not estopped from pleading his set-off by promising to pay the balance first owed by him.</p> <p>3. Promise—of a consideration for it. Such promise is without consideration to support it, unless it is also promised not to set off the payment last made, or unless it tends to change the relation of parties and the lights of the one to whom the promise is made.</p>
