— We are well satisfied by the evidence of the fraudulent character of the conveyance by defendant Tugel to his co-defendant Tagen; that it was without consideration, and made to defeat the claim of plaintiff. The evidence is equally clear in support of the charges made in the petition as to the misrepresentations and fraud of the son in relation to the writing executed to the father, and of his agreement to make and deliver a mortgage to secure the debt. The effort of the son to support his defense, that the writing was not executed by him, entirely fails. The indebtedness of the son is clearly established; in tact, it is not denied by him.. A discussion of the evidence upon these issues of fact we will not attempt, but content ourselves with stating our conclusions thereon.

No other points are presented in the case demanding consideration. The judgment of the District Court is
Aeeirmed.
