Opinion of the Court
Chase,'J.
The agreement binds tlie parties, and, like other agreements made matter of record, should be specifically enforced, unless it appears that it ought to be vacated for good cause.

Russell v. Babbitt, 60 N. H. 373. Whether it should be vacated is a question of fact to be determined at the trial term. By the agreement, the plaintiff waived her right of trial by jury. The waiver continues while the agreement is in force. There is no provision in the agreement by which the case is to be tried by a particular member of the court, or at a particular term, or by a jury at subsequent trials if the first does not result in a verdict. Its terms are general, and include all trials that are necessary to reach a decision of the issues.
Case discharged.
Clark, J., did not sit: the others concurred.
