        "text": "Mr. Justice Scholfield\ndelivered the opinion of the Court:\nPitthan & Bartel, who had a judgment against Juergen Schcen, caused Sebastian Rippen to be summoned to answer as garnishee of said Schcen.\nJudgment was rendered in the court below against Rippen, and he appeals to this court.\nWe are very clearly of opinion that the judgment below was unauthorized by the evidence, and it must, therefore, be reversed.\nRippen\u2019s answer denied all indebtedness at the date of the service of the writ, and the burden was on Pitthan & Bartel to disprove this answer. Wilhelmi v. Haffner, 52 Ill. 222.\nThe ground upon which Rippen is sought to be charged is, he had bought a house of the Schcens for $1600, and some furniture for $150, prior to the service of the writ.\nThe evidence, however, is satisfactory that he had paid all this, before the service of the writ, except a note to Mrs. Schcen of $550.\nThe amount of the note was not the subject of garnishment. The house belonged to Mrs. Schcen in her own right,' having been hers before her intermarriage with. Juergen, and the proceeds of its sale could not be subjected to the payment of his debts.\nThe evidence that Rippen said that he could not positively swear that he did not owe Schcen anything, \u201cfor he had not paid Mr. Schcen the note he gave him,\u201d we regard as being fully explained by the other evidence, showing that, in fact, this note was given to Mrs. Schcen, and that, too, in purchase of her own separate property, in which her husband had no interest whatever.\nWe have failed to discover any other evidence tending to fix a liability upon Pippen.\nThe judgment is reversed, and the cause remanded.\nJudgment reversed.",

    "head_matter": "Sebastian Rippen v. Juergen Sch\u0153n.\n1. Garnishment\u2014answer denying indebtedness must be disproved. Where the answer of a garnishee denies all indebtedness at the date of the service on him, the party garnisheeing must disprove the answer before he can recover. The burden of disproving it rests on him.\n2. Married woman\u2014note given Tier for her separate property not subject to her husband\u2019s debts. The amount of a promissory note given to a married woman, on the sale of a house which belonged to her before her marriage, is not liable to garnishment by a creditor of her husband. The proceeds of the sale of her separate property can not be subjected to the payment of the husband\u2019s debts.\nAppeal from the Circuit Court of St. Clair county; the Hon. William H. Snyder, Judge, presiding.\nMessrs. Kcerner & Turner, for the appellant.\nMessrs. Hay & Knispel, for the appellee."
