1Opinion of the Court

This suit was instituted by W. L. Wilson to enjoin the sale of Wilson's undivided 1/7th interest in 468 acres of land in Hill County, under an execution based on a judgment obtained by J. McAllister Stevenson against Wilson, it being contended the land constituted the homestead of Wilson and his wife. Plaintiff's interest in the land was devised to him by the will of his father, who died March 16, 1936. The judgment was obtained prior to that time. On September 7, 1937, Stevenson caused the execution to be issued and the Sheriff of Hill County to levy on said land on October 8, 1937.
