Syllabus
Sade op Land. Bents. Bight of purchaser. Precious assignment. The purchaser of land at partition sale is entitled to the rent falling due after his purchase, if not expressly reserved, and may distrain therefor, notwithstanding a rent note, previously given therefor, had been assigned by the landlord to another, who contests the purchaser’s right to such rent. See Watkins v. Pumll, ante, 364.
