Edwards v. Stevens
Edwards v. Stevens
Opinion of the Court
These exceptions cannot be sustained. For though the submission was broad enough to include the note now in suit, yet the note was not submitted to the consideration of the arbitrators. Their award, therefore, and the acceptance and payment of it, left the plaintiff’s claim to payment of the note wholly unaffected by the submission and the proceedings under it. The defendant’s remedy, if he has any, is by action against the plaintiff for breach' of his agreement contained in the submission. Webster v. Lee, 5 Mass. 334. King v. Savory, 8 Cush. 312. Bixby v.
