This is a writ of error from this court, sued out for the purpose of reversing a decree rendered in a suit in
After the decree in the equity suit which is complained of was entered by a single justice in the court sitting for the county, an appeal was taken to the full court, and exceptions were allowed by the single justice, and the appeal and exceptions were entered in the full court. While the exceptions and appeal were pending before the full court, the following agreement was filed in that court, viz.:
“ Supreme Judicial Court for the Commonwealth.
“ In Equity.
“ George P. Deshon et al., Assignees, vs. Arthur M. Evans and Augustin Thompson.
“ It is agreed in the above, entitled action that the appeal taken by the defendants be waived, that the bill of exceptions taken by said defendants be overruled, and that the decree of Mr. Justice Charles Allen be affirmed.
“ R. M. Morse, Jr., for complts.
J. B. Rich & , for deft. Evans.
J. A. Brackett, for deft. Thompson.”
A rescript of the full court affirming the decree of the single justice was sent down in pursuance of this agreement. It deserves to be considered by the plaintiffs in error whether any' proceedings in the nature of a bill of review will lie in this court to reverse a final decree in equity, which has been affirmed by the full court, although an application for a rehearing sometimes may be made, which is addressed exclusively to the discretion of the full court. It should also be considered whether, in any event, a bill of review will lie to reverse a final decree which has been affirmed by the full court by consent of all of the parties. See Winchester v.
