Creditor’s Bill—Fraudulent Conveyances—Removal op Cloud on Title—Action not Based on Fraud—Statute op Limitations.— An action by a judgment ereditor, after he has purchased under execution property conveyed by his debtor in fraud of bis creditors, to have such conveyance declared' void, is an action to remove a cloud from his title. While the question of fraud may be incidental to the action, still the relief asked is not based upon the fraud but upon the fact that fraudulent deeds constitute a cloud upon title, and the relief asked is that this cloud be removed. In such an- action -the statute of limitations governing actions for relief on the ground of fraud has no application.
