to this transfer Genner compromised with
his creditors for ON insignificant amount
and demanded that Mrs. Personette recon.

for while. but later refused. assigning as
reason for her refusal that she had
bought them from Genner. paying him $1,000
in cash and executing her note for s.. 200.

transactions. brought suit in six different
actions In the Superior Court to set aside
