the defendant had been the mere bailiff or partner of the plaintiff, and
there had been no settlement made; for in that case, the remedy would be an
action of account render, or a bill in chancery. It is usual in actions of
assumpsit, to add a count commonly called insimul computassent, or an
account stated. (q. v.) Lawes on Pl. in Ass. 488.
