The bill states that there was no consideration for the conveyance; that the grantee had full knowledge of the fraudulent object of the conveyance; and that the grantor afterwards paid the Robinses the debt due to them. Prayer, that the conveyance be decreed to be void.

General demurrer to the bill. The demurrer was overruled, and a final decree rendered for the complainants.

Held, that this decree must be reversed. The conveyance is valid as to the grantee, against the grantor and his heirs. Findley v. Cooley, 1 Blackf. 262. Drinkwater v. Drinkwater, 4 Mass. 354. — 1 Story’s Eq. Jur. 399.— Doe v. Roberts, 2 Barn. & Ald. 367.
