piiANT ». avm, T5I �The plaintiff has moved to remand it, and it has been iieard opon this motion. �The principle controversy relates to the title to the land, to which Fessenden is not alleged to make any olaim. As the fraud of the corporation is set up to defeat the title acquired from it, the corporation is a proper, if not a neces- sary, party to the bill; and, where a corporation is a party, under such circumstances its officers are proper parties in order to obtain discovery frpm them, but they aire not necessary parties.
