Plaintiff was appointed receiver of the property of one John Hughes in proceedings supplementary to execution. As such receiver, he brought an action against Hughes and wife to reach three notes which he alleged had been transferred by Hughes to his wife in fraud of his creditors. During the pendency of the action, the wife transferred one of the notes to her attorney in the action, receiving part of the purchase price in cash, the balance being applied in payment for his services. The other two notes were transferred before maturity to bona fide purchasers. Plaintiff recovered judgment ordering Hughes and wife to deliver to him the notes, or so much thereof as shotdd be necessary to satisfy the original judgment and costs. Upon proceeding by attachment against the wife, it appeared that she had expended the proceeds of the notes, and had no means to pay the judgment.

Held, that defendant having purchased pendente lite, with notice, was bound by the judgment, and that plaintiff was entitled to recover. J. O. Cochrane for the appellant. E. Harris for the respondent. [MAJORITY] Gray, 0., reads for affirmance. All concur. J udgment affirmed, with costs.
