Syllabus

<p>Fraudulent conveyance — Execution—Evidence—Question for jury.</p> <p>The defendant in a pending suit purchased real estate and took title in his wife’s name. Two months after a verdict against him, he and his wife conveyed the land to athird person. An action of ejectment was brought by the plaintiff against the grantee to recover the property after purchasing it at sheriff’s sale as the property of the defendant. The evidence tended to show that the property had been taken in the name of the wife in order that the defendant in the execution might not lose it, “if anything happened to him,” and that the conveyance to the defendant in the ejectment was without consideration, and under an agreement that the property should be given back. Held that the case was for the jury.</p>
