It is apparent then, that the meadow, ioned, must be one of the roads, or paths, referred onds of fubmiffion, as it has the name, and quality or path; and although the release of it concerns and transfers land, yet that was the very matter

A controverfy concerning a road or path, may in ftrict technical language, relate only to an incorpolitament, or right of way, but in common parlance ally refer to a claim to the foil. In arbitration bonds, to be liberally expounded, and, as in the present r to divers other matters not named, it would be g the words too curiously, to confine them to the ruction. The parties were, alfo, by the award, to with each other, fmall ftrips of land of one and fquare. Thefe ftrips must be viewed as connected ubject of the divifion fences, and to have been part of -overfy, as the award states that they arofe on the fetf the divifion fence. I do not perceive any thing in 1, that may not be included, even in the subject mate controverfy Specially fubmitted, except it be that he award which directs general releases.
