SUPPLEMENTAL OPINION ON DENIAL OF REHEARING JUSTICE EARNS delivered the opinion of the court:  Defendants have called our attention to what they perceive to be an ambiguity regarding the lien imposed on the property. Helen does not own two lots in joint tenancy with the Neatherys; however, this oversight does not affect our disposition. Helen presently holds record title to the entire parcel except for two lots which she sold to the Neatherys in 1977. Regardless of the amount of acreage retained by Helen, the lien is to attach to the property she holds, or proceeds therefrom, if susceptible to tracing or identification. (See 37 C.J.S. Fraudulent Conveyances sec. 278 (1943).) The Neatherys are protected as bona fide purchasers, and as such their property is not subject to attachment to enforce the judgment for child support. See, e.g., Lyon v. Moore (1913), 259 Ill. 23; see also Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 59, par. 5. JONES and EASSERMAN, JJ., concur.
