    A dation en paiement by the husband to the wife, when attacked by creditors of the husband, must be supported by satisfactory evidence that the money he pretended to have paid liad been really,received by him from his wife’s paraphernal funds.
    Where the circumstances of the case, as well as the proof therein, indicates that the husband is attempting to shield his property from his creditors through his wife, the court will sift the evidence and discourage the perpetuation of fraud.
