Syllabus

<p>Judgment— Validity of judgment—Evidetiee—Question for jury.</p> <p>In an action by the vendors of personal property who had rescinded the sale, against the sheriff and an execution creditor for an alleged wrongful sheriff’s sale of the goods, where the issue is the validity of the judgment under which the sheriff’s sale was made, the Supreme Court will not reverse a verdict and judgment for defendants, if it appears that the evidence, although contradictory in character, tended to show that the debt represented by the judgment was contracted after the goods went into the possession of the defendant in the execution, and that the judgment was confessed without any fraudulent intent.</p>
