¶1This judgment was afterwards affirmed in the Supreme Court of Errors. Upon the principle that the creditors must be concluded, as to their claims by the report of the commissioners; whether the estate turns out to be insolvent or not; for otherways the settlement of estates would be greatly delayed, if not wholly prevented; and executors and administrators be exposed to great risk and damage.
