On Rehearing.
The following proposition advanced by appellee on rehearing is not a correct construction of our opinion: “If the lien of a secured creditor can be defeated by the Administrator of an estate and the Probate Court by a sale of the mortgaged property, as was done in this case, * *
Our holding in the original opinion on this point is “that the sale of the lease in no way impaired appellee’s security.” Appellee correctly asserts: “There are no Probate Statutes giving the Probate Court or an Administrator authority to defeat duly filed secured claims by selling the security ‘free and clear of all liens’, or ‘subject to all liens and encumbrances’.” The answer to this contention is the simple fact that the sale made by the adminis-tratrix of the lease on the property in issue did not defeat appellee’s secured claim; his security is at this time unimpaired by any of the proceedings reflected by this appeal.
The motion for rehearing is overruled, as is also the motion for oral argument.
