Decided 1785-11-15

¶1And

by the Court.

¶2Tbe evidence is irrelevant, for no intermeddling with tbe real estate of tbe deceased will make the defendant an executor de son tort. Nor will bis bolding and disposing of goods and chattels, conveyed by tbe deceased in bis lifetime; although tbe bill of sale of them was fraudulent; for though tbe bill of sale may be fraudulent as to creditors, it is good and valid between tbe parties, and upon these principles all evidence of this kind was excluded.
