Fraud—Preferred creditor.—Although a creditor may know tile insolvency of the debtor, he may fairly and legally secure for himself a preference over other creditors, (provided his' negotiation does not come within the prohibitions of the Bankrupt law,) and this though the object of the debtor be to defeat his other creditors, provided the preferred creditor is not chargeable with notice of that fact.</p> <p>3. Judgment lien—Equity.—The law, except as varied by registration statutes, is, that a judgment lien is subject to every equity against land in the hands of a judgment debtor at the time of the rendition of the judgment.</p>
