““He had a right to dispose of his property in the ordinary course of business for a valuable consideration, and the defendant (the grantee) had a right to purchase it. The complainant, not showing that he was at the time a creditor,. cannot complain. Even a voluntary conveyance is good as against subsequent creditors, unless executed as a cover for future schemes of fraud.””
