1Opinion of the CourtSmith, J.
On the 18th day of January, 1916, the People’s Bank of Searcy recovered a judgment against H. L. Brown in the sum of $4,500. An execution issued on said judgment and was levied on lots 10, 11 and 12, in block 30, of the city of Searcy. Sometime prior to the issuance of the execution, Brown had moved from his home on the above-described lots to Des Arc, and had rented his home to one McCain.
