Andrews, appellant, v. Raymond.
    
      fraudulent deed — undue influence — evidence.
    
    In an action to set aside a deed, upon the ground of fraud and undue influence, it was shown that the person procuring the deed had strenuously urged the one making it, who was a married woman and of a low grade of intelligence, to do so without consulting her husband or relations. Held, that while this was a suspicious circumstance, mere suspicion of Undue influence was not enough; it must be proved.
    
      J. J. Duddleston, Jr., and Amos II. Prescott, for appellant.
    
      S. 8. Morgan, for respondent.
   Mdllin, P. J.
