¶1Opinion by

White, J.

¶2§ 11. Judgment by default. It is a rule of practice settled by an unbroken line of decisions in this state, that in a judgment by default the facts set out in the petition *14are to be taken as proved. [Watson v. Newsham, 17 Tex. 437; Guest v. Rhine, 16 Tex. 550; Willard v. Conduit, 10 Tex. 214; Swift v. Faris, 11 Tex. 19; Long v. Wortham, 4 Tex. 381; Hall v. Jackson, 3 Tex. 305; Ricks v. Pinson, 21 Tex. 508; Trabue v. Stonum, 20 Tex. 454; Niblett v. Shelton, 28 Tex. 551.]

April 12, 1877.

¶3§ 12. After judgment by default. It is too late to object that petition does not set out the will and its probate substantially or in hoec verba.

¶4§ IB. Partnership; continuation of after death of a partner. A partnership can be extended by will so as to continue after the death of the testator. [1 Pars, on Cont. 5th ed. p. 208, note d. ]

¶5Affirmed.
