On Rehearing.
[3] As shown by its own recitals, the second deed of trust executed by Roberts was not executed upon any new consideration passing from tbe bank to Roberts, but was executed for no other purpose than to correct tbe alleged mistake in tbe recitals in the release that the original indebtedness bad been fully paid and to continue in force tbe original deed of trust given to secure its payment. If tbe original debt bad been paid in full, as found by the court, then the original lien was discharged, and, if it was dead at tbe time tbe second deed .of trust was executed, that instrument could not continue it in force as against Jones, and for that reason tbe second deed of trust could be given no effect.
[4] Tbe mistake made in tbe amount of tbe judgment in favor of Jones did not render tbe judgment lien ineffective as contended by appellant. Until corrected in some proper manner, it was valid for the full amount, and tbe correction entered did not operate to destroy it any more than would the entry of a credit upon a judgment after it bad been properly abstracted.
Except as shown above, appellant’s motion for further findings is overruled.
Appellant’s motion for rehearing,. also, is overruled.
