i vendor toníconsfderaaon. To establish fraud the plaintiff relies to some extent upon the difference between the value of the land and the Price which the defendant paid for it. The quantity of land is eighty acres. The amount paicl by defendant was $58.94, including the taxes which were due on it. As to the value, the witnesses differ greatly; they estimate it from $240 to $600. Great as was the difference between the value and the price paid, this fact alone would not show fraud. It is a circumstance which may be considered with other circumstances.
