1Opinion of the CourtLand, J.
This is a petitory action to recover the N. y2 of N. W. % section 20, township 15 S., range 10 E., situated in the parish of St. Mary. Both parties trace their titles to Robert Gibbs, who purchased the land from the state of Louisiana in the year 1847. Defendant claims under a sale made by Robert Gibbs in 1849 to Adelard Carlin. Plaintiff claims under a probate sale made in the vacant succession of Robert Gibbs in 1899. The contention of the plaintiff is that the deed from Gibbs to Carlin was not inscribed on the records so as to give notice that the land in dispute had been conveyed.
