Mr. Justice Woods.
1 3 I concur in the result. The written contract, which will be printed in the report of the case, did not create the relation of landlord and tenant. McCutchen v. Crenshaw, 40 S. C., 511, 19 S. E., 140; McLemore, therefore, had no statutory lien to assign, and the defendant could not be convicted of disposing of crops under a lien which did not exist. I think the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh exceptions should be sustained, on this ground as well as on the reasoning of the Chief Justice.
