In Pennsylvania, however, it has been decided that if A furnishes money to B, subsequently to B's purchase, under an agreement made at the time of the purchase that A shall have an interest proportioned to the amount paid by A to B, there is a resulting trust to that extent in A's favor.

34. The contention that it means that the part paid by the asserted cestui must be an exact divisor of the whole purchase price has been several times over ruled. Fleming v. McHale, 47 111. 282; Hinshaw v. Russell 280 111. 235, 117 N. E. 406; Miller v. Miller, 99 Va. 123, 37 S. E. 792; Currence v. Ward, 43 W. Va. 367, 27 S. E. 329; see Skehill v.

35. See cases cited ante, note 31; No such requirement is referred to in the English authorities. See Lake v. Gibson, 1 Eq. Cas. Abr. 291; Wray v. Steele, 2 Ves. & B. 388; Lewin, Trusts (12th Ed.) 186.
The presumption above referred to, that in the case of a conveyance to the wife or child of the person paying the consideration, a gift or advancement to the wife or child was intended, is, it is generally agreed, owner. Trusts which thus arise, in the view of a court of equity, in favor of persons equitably entitled to property wrongfully obtained or withheld by another, are not "trusts" at all, in the proper sense of the word, since no relation of confidence exists, and the person equitably entitled seeks, not to establish an equitable interest, but to enforce an equitable right to a legal interest. Indeed a court of equity might frequently give effective relief in such case without indulging in the fiction of a trust, but this fiction is of great utility in enabling the person entitled to assert a claim not only against the property itself which was wrongfully obtained or withheld, but also against any other property which can he regarded as the proceeds or product of such property.46 In view of the remedial, rather than substantive, nature of these trusts, a consideration of the circumstances under which they may be recognized would involve chiefly a discussion of various classes of fraudulent conduct against which equity will relieve, a matter outside of the scope of this work, and a few, merely, of the various classes of cases in which this doctrine has been applied will he here referred to.
