Opinion of the Court

Breese, J.

There was no execution set up in this case as a justification for taking the property. The jury weighed the evidence as to plaintiff’s right to the property, and if they believed the witness, they could find as they did.

There is nothing in the action of the court on the instructions, to justify our interference. The case of Wheeler v. McCorristen, ante, decides this case.

The judgment must be affirmed.

Judgment affirmed.
