2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority““A father may give a valid preference to a son, * * * but the relationship of the parties tó a transfer which defeats the just claims of other creditors is a circumstance to be con sidered and given due weight in determining the good faith of the transaction. Such a transaction must be closely scrutinized by the court, where fraud is charged by defeated creditors. * * * There must be clear and satisfactory proof that there was a valid and subsisting debt. If any part of the debt relied on as consideration for the transfer is fraudulent or fictitious, it will taint the whole transaction and avoid the sale in favor of the creditors.””
