¶1As I un•derstand this case, all the separate property of each bankrupt has been allowed to him as exempted. The state exemption laws have been decided by the state courts not to apply to partnership property; and the words of the act of congress manifestly refer only to separate property of the debtor. The exceptions are overruled.
