Syllabus

<p>Fraud — Evidence—Sufficiency. Actionable fraud on the part of the vendee in the sale of a steamboat is sufficiently established, where there was evidence that the vendee induced the vendors to take in part payment an assignment of a fictitious land contract, guaranteeing that $4,000 of the purchase money had been paid thereon, making representations well calculated to deceive and upon which the vendors relied, inquiry being prevented by the vendee’s artifice.</p> <p>Appeal — Preservation of Grounds — Exceptions. In the absence of exceptions, error cannot be predicated upon the instructions.</p>
