1Opinion of the CourtHodges, J.
This suit was originally instituted in the justice court of precinct 1 of Lamar county, by the appellant against the appellees, to recover the sum of $131, alleged to be the value of certain cotton converted by the appellees upon which the appellant had a landlord’s lien. The appellant recovered a judgment in the justice court for $111.18. The appellees perfected an appeal to the county court, where a verdict was rendered in favor of the appellees under a peremptory instruction from the court. The only question presented in this appeal is that which assails the correctness of that instruction.
