        "text": "Per Curiam.\nThis was an attachment by appellants against Mrs. Fifield.\nThe affidavit charged the defendant with having fraudulently conveyed or otherwise disposed of her property within two years for the purpose of hindering and delaying her creditors, and also that she was about to fraudulently dispose of her property so as to hinder and delay her creditors.\nOn the trial the court gave the following instruction at the instance of defendant: The amount of the alleged indebtedness of Mrs. Fifield to the plaintiff is not a question for the jury to decide, and under the issues made by the pleadings the only questions for the jury to decide are:\n1st. Was the defendant, when this suit was begun, about to fraudulently dispose of her property so as to hinder and delay her creditors?\n2d. Has she within two years before this suit was begun fraudulently conveyed or otherwise disposed of her property so as to hinder and delay her creditors; and if the plaintiffs have failed to prove both of those points by a preponderance of the evidence you should find for the defendant.\n\u201c Hsually the plaintiff may allege as many grounds of attachment within the terms of the law as he may deem expedient. In doing so, the several grounds should be stated, cumulatively, and if any one of them be true it will sustain the attachment though all the others be untrue.\u201d Drake on Attachments, Sec. 101. (5th ed.)\nThe plaintiffs were entitled to recover if they proved either cause for the attachment, but if they failed to prove both of the causes alleged they could not recover. We think the instruction technically correct.\nEven if liable to be misunderstood, standing alone, when read in connection with the preceding instruction, it could not have misled the jury.\nJudgment affirmed.",
