Mississippi Supreme Court October 15, 1876 (Prestidge v. Cooper)

Chalmers, J.,

delivered the opinion of the court.

In 1860, Robert Prestidge, in fraud of his creditors, made a voluntary conveyance of all his property, consisting of lands and slaves, to his two infant children, and at once recorded the deed. One month thereafter, he sold the same property to Cooper and another for a full price, receiving payment.
