No exceptions to findings of fact or conclusions of law are necessary where the sole question on appeal is whether the findings support the judgment.</p> <p>Fraudulent Conveyances — Sale of Oyster Business — Knowledge of Creditor — Laches—Estoppel. Where after notice of the transfer of his debtor’s stock of goods in bulk, fraudulent as to creditors for want of the statutory notice, a creditor makes no demand on the purchasers and waits for a year before attempting to reach the proceeds of the sale by garnishment, the debtor meanwhile becoming execution proof, the creditor is estopped to question the validity of the sale.</p>
