Description
MARTIN filed a bill in equity in the Federal Court of Wisconsin to set aside a contract of sale which he had made to Brooks of his interest in a partnership venture, and for an account and division of the profits; the ground of the prayer being his own alleged embarrassed condition at the time of the sale; his ignorance of the partnership business; fraud on the part of the defendant, Brooks; concealment by Brooks of what he knew; misrepresentation in what he professed to tell; and want of consideration proportioned to the real value of the interest which the complainant had in the concern. The answer admitted the purchase by Brooks; but denied the fraud. The court gave the relief prayed; and from its decree herein an appeal, the present suit, came here. The case, as proved by the evidence, and as shown and assumed by this court after a very careful examination of an immense mass of testimony,–twelve hundred pages closely printed,–set forth in part in the opinion, but, as involving very voluminously controverted issues of fact, not necessary, nor indeed possible, to be presented here,1 was in substance this.
