Merchants having received damage by the skipper's fault, each owner was found liable in solidum for the damage done by the skipper's fault, without regard whether each man's interest in the ship did extend so far; but, as the damage claimed was within the value of the ship itself, there was no occasion to determine whether the owners could be reached beyond the value of the ship.
