Syllabus

<p>Ejectment — Possession—Affidavit—Act of July 9, 1901, P. L. 614.</p> <p>In an action of ejectment, defendants, who were duly served entered a plea, and permitted the case to be tried upon the merits, cannot subsequently object to the action of the court in permitting the plaintiff to file nunc pro tunc before the trial, an affidavit setting forth who were the claimants of the premises, where such affidavit had not been filed with the praecipe as required by the 10th clause of sec. 1 of the Act of July 9, 1901, P. L. 614.</p> <p>Ejectment — Fraud—Evidence—Fraudulent conveyance.</p> <p>In an action of ejectment where the issue is upon the alleged fraudulent character of a deed to hinder creditors, great liberality will be exercised in the admission of evidence which has a tendency to show the fraud; and the party alleging the fraud is entitled to have the jury consider the united force of items of testimony having this tendency.</p>
