Syllabus

<p>1. Purchaser—Warranty—Notice.—A purchaser who receives a deed with general warranty of title, having at the time knowledge of a defect of title, can not resist the payment of the purchase money on the ground that such defect exists. Thus one claiming under such a deed, with notice, can not avoid the payment of a purchase money note, given by him for land, the deed to which was received by his vendor during the continuance of the marriage relation between such vendor and his wife, who afterwards died, leaving children, and which was sold by said vendor after her death.</p>
