tab Another circumstance developed by
the testimony us, chat Levi paid no
money, but executes two notes for a
little less than SIS 900, which are inn

sweats fhat his folly ifh5tfeei was to
save firm debit Of $3.50, in which
he had but a onesthird interest and
this he does by the purchase of a
tpaof stock ofigoods, and poorer notes

would be. $500 while he, testifies to
having voluntarily, out Of friendship

amount thanIatheI whole firm debt,
without any security whatever. THE.
tends strongly to show that either the
urgent motive Of securing himself and
his firm did not exist, or that beyond
the accomplishment of that purpose
the whole sale was a pretence. and his
generosity was based upon 0berdofer's
property, then in his hands. by sham
sale That the plaintiff. knew of
A0befdefer & Gals large indebtednessl
at the time of his pretended purchase,
is evident from his testimony about
securing himself. With a stock on

becomes to me satisfactory that this
transaction was sham and a fraud
intended to frequent and hinder the
creditors of EOberdofer & Co. from
collecting their debts Judgment for

itration of the II beauties and aadvan-
.tages llof perhiittiug swine to run at
large in the streets of the city. A
small child in the street approached a
flock Of young pigs when the mother
of the infantile porkers rushed at it,
rooted it over, and lascerated its face

ference of Mr.. P. Decker, there is but
little doubt the child would have
