5 Cow. 425

Counsel

Lockwood for Newcomb,, Anderson, for McKinney and Thompson.

McKinney v. Newcomb

Opinion of the Court

Curia.

Here is no pretence of dishonesty or corruption in the arbitrators. We do not examine the merits on an application to set aside the award. (2 Archb. Pr. 289. 2 Burr. 701. 1 Str. 301. 1 Saund. 327, d.) A mere rais*426take of the law is not a ground for our interference ; and js aq which is pretended. The case cited from the 17 Johnson was in a court of equity. The motion to set aside the award must be denied; and the attachment must go.

Rule accordingly.
