In an action for damages for fraud and deceit in falsely representing that a note secured by mortgage and given on an exchange for land was good and that the maker was solvent, where there was evidence tending to show that defendant had no title when he sold the land, that the land was worth only about one-tenth of the face of the note, and there was improperly excluded evidence that defendant had at one time traded the note to a third person who, upon finding that the note and mortgage were worthless, compelled defendant to take them back upon threat of a criminal prosecution, held that the court erroneously refused to direct a verdict.\nAppeal from the Circuit Court of Fayette county; the Hon. William B. Wright, Judge, presiding.
