Shute & Co. v. Sturm
Shute & Co. v. Sturm
Opinion of the Court
delivered the opinion of the Court.
The fraud charged in the bill in regard to the-transfer of the note to defendant Gratz is very positively denied in the answers of all the defendants. The only positive proof upon the subject tends to establish the bona fides of .the transaction, while there is a combination of circumstances • so curious as to render the solution of the question of fraud one of much difficulty.
Upon a careful review of the whole case, however, we have arrived at the conclusion of the Chancellor, that the proofs fail to make out the degree of fraud charged in the bill. But the conclusion is irresistible
The Chancellor’s decree is in all respects affirmed, and the cause remanded for further proceedings under said decree.
