1Opinion of the CourtSmith, C. J.
The plaintiff’s claim to the cotton, the recovery of which, or its value, is the object of this action, is derived under an agricultural lien created by a mortgage made March 2, 1877, by one Sandy Williams, pursuant to the provisions of the act of 1867 (Bat. Rev., ch. 65, § 19,) which cotton he- alleges has been appropriated by the defendant to his own use.
The defendant’s counsel moved that the action be dismissed, and being overruled, put in his answer denying the plaintiff’s right and asserting title in himself under a similar instrument executed on the 20th day of the same month.
