That was the foundation of the decision in Grace v. Smith, and I think it stands upon the fair ground of reason.
Pagina 270 - A tort committed by one partner will not bind the partnership or the other copartner, unless it be either authorized or adopted by the firm, or be within the proper scope and business of the partnership.
