BART, appellant V. CANNON ct al. From
Pitt. No error.
The fact that the grantee in deed
holds a mortgage from the grantor on
other property does not raise a presump-
ton OF fraud in the deed.
In an action by a married woman
against her former guardian (uE,tfer 17S
of The Code. to recoyer~her separate
property, there was evidence that upon
rlaintiff and her husband representing
that plaintiff was of age, the guardian
was discharged informally, it appearing
that he had received no money, and that
subsequently the land in question was
conveyed by plaintiff and her husband to
the guardian with privy examination and
for full value and that prior thereto
plaintiff and husband had mortagaged
ether land of plaintiffs and the mort
gage had been purchased by the guardian;
that plaintiff was under age when the
mortgage was executed and also when
the deed to the guardian was executed
that upon plaintiffs becoming of age she
and her husband again conveyed the land
to the guardian but the deed was without
consideration; that the last deed was
executed under duress, the guardian
threatening to prosecute plaintiff and her
husbands for fraud in representing that
plaintiff was of age when she executed
the mortgage.
The court refused to instruct the Jury
that If they found from the evidence that
defendant was guardian OF plaintiff and
had failed TO file final account. etc, the
law presumed fraud in the execution of
the deed on account OF the~relation be-
tween the parties and tire burden was on
defendant to rebut such presumption, but
instructed them in lieu thereof that the
law scrutinizes transactions between
guardian and ward and the burden Is on
defendant to show that all transactions
between the parties were fair; that the
facts that defendant held q mortgage on
other lands of plaintiff and had recently
been her guardian were circumstances
which the jury should consider and from
which they might find fraud AMI undue
ed in connection with the alleged threat
to prosecute plaintiff and her husband:
Held, no error.
The Supreme court will not assume that
facts stated in an assignment of error are
true when the case on appeal settled by
the Judge contains no recital Of such
facts.
Exception to the refusal of a prayer to
instruct the jury that there is no evil
dence on an issue will not be considered
when the case on appeal does not set out
the evidence and does not state that
there was no evidence.

that a man could be seen for mile or
more when the plaintiff was first seen by
the engineer; the track was straight and
the view unobstructed, and the court say
that upon all the evidence in the case:
If he was seen by the engineer in an
upright position and apparently in his
senses, the engineer had d right TO pre-
sumo he would get Off Upton's case, 12S
N. C. 173. But if the engineer failed to
keep a proper lookout, or if he saw
that the plaintiff was in helpless con-
dition and failed to use the appliances

There was conflicting evidence in this
case, but as no error is found in the re-
cord, the judgment upon the verdict of
the jury in favor of the plaintiff will not

FARRAR V. HARPER, appellant. From
Edgecombe. Reversed
The difference in the phraseology of the
Act of 1S60-70, chapter 81 and the Act
of 1885 as amended by the Act of 1887,
chapter IT, with reference TO the running
judgment against the owner OF a home.
stead during the existence of such home
stead, is not sufficient to cause a differ
ent Interpretation to be given the two
Acts.
The meaning of the proviso in the Act
of 1901, chapter II, amending the Act of
1885. as follows; provided, further, that
the owners of judgments docketed since
March IL, 1885, shall have two years from
the ratification of the Act within which
to assign and set apart the honesteads
under such judgments" etc, is that, il
the ten years in which to have the judg-
ment docketed had not expired at the
ratification of that Act, the plaintiff
should have two years within which to
have the homestead allotted, and, if it
is allotted within that time, the running
OF the statute should be arrested and
the judgment should not be barred as to
the land so set apart.
In the Interpretation of statute, effect
should be given to each and every part,
or one part should be construed by an
other in order that the whole may stand.
