Duckworth, Chief Justice,
dissenting. I dissent upon the ground that the petition fails to allege facts sufficient to show the true sales, receipts, and earnings of the business during the period wherein the figures represented to be the true figures were allegedly false and made to induce the petitioner to purchase the business; and the mere allegations that such figures were false, fraudulent, and made with the intent to induce him to-purchase, and the petitioner discovered the fraud after the purchase of the business, are mere conclusions of the pleader which must be construed most strongly against him on general demur*322rer. The petition was subject to demurrer and should, have been dismissed.
