On Rehearing.
In the original opinion it is stated, “the work and material therefor being paid for by the defendant under the agreement,” and this statement is vigorously assailed by the appellee. We are of the opinion that the record of the facts, as a whole, bears out this conclusion, but we deem this immaterial as no judgment is rendered for the money furnished for the building and material. The case is decided upon the furnishing of the ?750 purchase money of the lots. It is clear that appellant paid this purchase money and that he had an equitable lien, which was later merged into and evidenced by the deed of trust given by appellee and wife to. appellant as beneficiary. It is immaterial whether this deed of trust was executed before or after appellee moved to the premises.
We are of the opinion that the appellee’s motion for rehearing should be and it is in all things overruled.
