Syllabus

<p>Partnership — Assumpsit for worJe done — Evidence of partnership.</p> <p>In an action for work done, against two persons alleged to be partners, where it appears that the work was ordered by one of the defendants who was not served, the evidence is sufficient to establish a partnership between the two defendants and to support a judgment on a verdict against the one served, where the evidence tends to show that the latter was the owner of a device, that he sold a one-third interest to the other defendant, that the device was to be erected and operated for the joint interest of the owners, and presumptively that the distribution of the profits was to be in proportion to the interest of the owners in the business.</p>
