Elliott v. Brindley , 1 Del. 364 ( 1834 )

The court

were of opinion that the referees meant to decide this question, and that they were competent to decide it. They might find a sum due on bond, or for rent, or for wages; and if the party meant to controvert the fact, or to object to the award for stating extraneous matter, he should have done so before the confirmation.

Verdict for plaintiff.
