This was a bill filed by Walker as a judgment creditor of William Binnie, to set aside as fraudulent his conveyance of certain lots described, embracing all his real estate, to his son and co-defendant, the plaintiff in error. A decree was entered as prayed for.
Questions of fact only are involved. The conveyance was made before fhe judgment was recovered, and it is said the evidence fails to show either of the essential facts; namely, that complainant was then a creditor of William Binnie, and that the latter had not other property, subject to execution and sufficient to satisfy the claim, and that John E. participated in his fraudulent purpose to hinder its collection, if any such there was.
It does not appear that the evidence contained in the record is all that was produced on the hearing, and yet, we think, there is enough to sustain the decree. William told Walker that if he (Walker) beat him on the judgment, he (William) would beat him on the execution, and though the date of this statement is not given, the fair inference is that the claim against him was then in existence and the conveyance had not been *84made. He also told Maxwell, and at another time Harrocks, that he had made it because of this threatened judgment, which would j'ustify the further inference that he believed it had defeated the execution; in other words, that he had not other property subj’ect to it and sufficient to satisfy it, especially since^the statement last mentioned was made to another creditor who held an unrecorded mortgage upon part of the premises so conveyed, by way of excuse for executing a deed and putting it on record ahead of that mortgage. Harrocks further testified that John E. was present at their conversation, and that fact is sufficient, in view of his relation to William, to charge him with participation in the latter’s purpose to hinder Walker in the collection of his debt. Other circumstances, connected with the alleged consideration for the conveyance, tend to prove the same, but it is unnecessary to state them.
In a bill of this character it is not requisite to show that complainant had an execution returned nulla iona. The recovery of a j'udgment, with right to have execution, is sufficient. Weightman v. Hatch, 17 Ill. 281, 286; Beach v. Bestor, 45 Ill. 341, 346; Newman v. Willetts, 52 Ill. 101; Fusze v. Stern, 17 Ill. App. 429.
Decree affirmed.
