Stowe v. Taft , 58 N.H. 445 ( 1878 )

If personal property, when sold, is in the possession of a third person, and he is fully informed of the sale, by the parties, it is a sufficient explanation of the want of a change of possession, so that the sale is not fraudulent in law as to the creditors of the vendor. To avoid the sale in such a case, fraud, in fact, must be proved. Kendall v. Fitts, 22 N.H. 1; Morse v. Powers, 17 N.H. 286, 294; Pierce v. Chipman, 8 Vt. 334; Merritt v.
