Branham v. Long
Branham v. Long
Opinion of the Court
Opinion by
This was a proceeding to enforce a lien for the purchase money for land. The court below gave judgment on one of the notes for $195.65 and decreed a sale of the land to satisfy the judgment.
It is complained on appeal that it was error to adjudge that there was a lien as against appellant who had purchased the land at decretal sale without notice of the existence of such a lien, and further that the court erred in finding appellee to be the owner of the note. The evidence shows that the note on which judgment was rendered was a renewal of a part of the one of the purchase-
As to the question of the ownership of the note it appears to us that nothing more can be said than that the evidence conclusively shows the ownership to> be in appellee. It is also complained that the court gave judgment for ten per centum interest when the original purchase-money notes bore only six per cent. The judgment gives only six per cent.
Judgment affirmed.
