Opinion:
BOYCE J.
Affirmed. The appellant at the time he repaired the automobile in question, was either the owner or mortgagee in possession. The repairs were made for his own benefit and under the terms of his mortgage or sales contract with Hudson. If he had any lien on the automobile to cover the cost of such repairs, it was by virtue of such contract, and not by reason of the constitutional and statutory provisions for a mechanic's lien.
