• 74 Ill. 414

Syllabus

<p>1. Feaudulent conveyance—both parties must participate in fraud. In order to impeach a conveyance of land for fraud, both grantor and grantee must be shown to have intended to commit the fraud as against creditors of the grantor.</p> <p>2. Same —fraud not presumed. Fraud against creditors in a conveyance of the debtor’s property cannot be presumed, but must be proved.</p> <p>3. When a debtor not in debt sells his interest in land to another and receives payment in full, and after debts are contracted by the firm of which he is a member, he conveys the land to the purchaser, neither he nor his grantee having any knowledge of the indebtedness, the conveyance cannot be impeached for fraud as to the creditors.</p>
