junction. The principal points made by
the plaintiff are that accessible personal
property should first have been levied
upon, and that the sale Of real estate
was not begun within the proper limit Of
time. The defense claims that no per
Isonal property could be found, and that
the subsequent proceedings were accord
ing to law.
