Resoript BY Savage 1.-THE court 10 OF
opinion that the charges of fraud in the

tanned by the proof. Fraud IL never I'd be
presumed. And 1t is considered that in d
case where many years have elapsed, and
parties and witnesses are dead. and i'm
portant papers are lost, tho proof OF fraud
should be full, clear and convincing.
Such proof the complainants have failed
to furnish. The court Is also Of opinion
that the complainants may fairly be
barred by la ohes
30 far as the validity Of the defendants
title may be affected by the alleged lille
gslity in the appointment Of Nose'
