The defendant holds the land in question as trustee for his wife 5 as such the legal title is in him.

A purchaser at a sheriff\u2019s sale succeeds to all the rights of the defendant in the execution ; that is, acquires the interest the latter had, whatever that may be, in the state it was in at the time the execution was levied. Rutherford v. Green, 2 Ire. Eq. 121. The defendant, in the execution, cannot deny the purchaser\u2019s right to stand in his shoes. Should the plaintiff, in this case, attempt to deprive the trustee of the possession of the premises, the remedy of the oestui que tn'ust will be in a Court of Equity.\nThere is error in the judgment below, and, by consent of the defendant, judgment is rendered for the plaintiff.\nPee CueiaM.

PALMER.\nA sale of land under, and by virtue of, a judgment and execution, transfers, at law, all the estate, rights and interest, of the defendant, in the execution, even the legal estate which he holds as trustee.\nThis was an actioN of ejeotmei\u00edt, tried before SauN-dees, J., at the Spring Term, 185T, of Orange Superior Court.\nJ. M. Palmer made a deed of trust of the property in question to N. J. Palmer, trustee,- dated 21st of March, 1853, to secure various creditors therein mentioned, upon conditions, and provisions which, the plaintiif contended below, were fraudulent and void as against creditors. This property was sold by the trustee, and bought by Henry Lutterloh at a'full price, who conveyed the same to the defendant, as the trustee of his wife.\n\"While Palmer was thus seized, the property in question was levied upon and sold, by virtue of an execution in favor of Foley and Woodside against him, and the plaintiif purchased it at auction, and took the sheriff\u2019s deed for the same.\nThere were various important questions growing out-of the validity of the instrument, but the Court perceiving that there was error in the charge of his Honor, upon the general right of the plaintiff to recover, independently of these questions, therefore, declined to hear them discussed.\nJudgment below was rendered proforma for the defendant, on the case agreed. Plaintiff appealed.\nBailey and Bowie, for plaintiff.\nGraham, for defendant."
