Lyle vs. Clanton.
    1. A mortgage./?./», against one Mansfield contained the following description of the property covered by the mortgage: “Alsothe original stock of him, said Mansfield, of ten thousand dollars, in' the Oakly Mills Manufacturing Company’s property, to-wit: Lands and machinery of every description, the property of William J. Mansfield, deceased, in the hands of William T. Winn, administrator, to be administered:”
    
      Held, that such/, fa. authorized a levy upon the stock of the defendant, but not upon the lands of the company; and upon the trial of a claim case arising under such a levy, the rejection of the/, fa. from evidence and the dismissal of the levy were right.
    2. To prove “by parol that the land claimed was a portion of the land mentioned in the mortgage ft. fa.” was irrelevant, the/. fa. not being against the land of the company.
    Judgment affirmed.
    February 19, 1884.
   Jackson, Chief Justice.'
