Creditors of the vendor claimed .. that the sale was fraudulent, and had the goods attached and sold, in a suit by the vendee, on the sheriff’s bond. Held:</p> <p>(1) It was error to charge the jury that they should find for the plaintiff the value of all the goods seized, if they believed that he purchased them, or any part of them, in good faith.</p> <p>2. Charge.—See statement of facts for special charges held to have been properly refused.</p>
