1Opinion of the CourtDawkins, J.
Plaintiff sequestered certain live stock and farm implements which he alleged belonged to defendant, and asserted a vendor’s lien thereon. Thereafter, while the property was still under seizure, plaintiff and defendant executed what was termed a settlement, by which the latter purported to convey to the former the property so seized, but the suit was not dismissed. Subsequently the third opponent intervened and claimed the ownership of certain of the property, and the opposition alone was tried below. There was judgment in favor of the opponent, and plaintiff has appealed.
