PER CURIAM.
As the assignment in question was made by an insolvent debtor, and purports to convey all his property to be distributed equally among all his creditors, and the same has been accepted by the assignee and a majority in number, if not in amount, of all the creditors, the deed of assignment cannot be held to be fraudulent on its face, although the assignment might otherwise be open to objection by reason of some of the provisions contained therein, if the assignment were one granting preferences; nor can such assignment be set aside in a court of equity because of the fraudulent intention of the assignor, where it is not shown that the assignee and the accepting creditors participated in the fraud. The decree appealed from is affirmed.
