1Opinion of the Court
Hatch, J.:
By this action the plaintiff seeks to have a construction placed upon a judgment for divorce heretofore rendered between the parties, so as to make the amount of alimony awarded to plaintiff in such judgment a charge upon the estate of the defendant, with a priority of lien thereon superior to all other creditors except those who may have obtained judgments, and further that an accounting be had, and that a sufficient part of said estate be impounded or security given such as will secure to her payment of alimony as_ provided by the judgment, during the term of her natural life.
