An appeal was taken from that common law verdict, and the case was tried on the appeal, a verdict rendered, and judgment signed thereon at the December term of the Court, 1866. An execution issued upon this last and final judgment, and was levied upon the property in dispute as the property of Collier, which was claimed by Rust, who claimed it under a chain of title derived from Collier, under a deed executed by him to Moughon, dated 29th June, 1860.
