McCrory employed Benson to repair a house. Benson employed Shines to do the plastering. Shines recorded his lien, and brought suit in the county court to foreclose it against Benson and prayed a judgment against Benson and a special judgment against the property. McCrory was-not made a party to the suit by the petition, nor was process-prayed against him. He appeared, however, in the county court and demurred to the petition, and, his demurrer being overruled, filed a plea to the merits. The county judge-awarded judgment against Benson, the contractor, and a special lien upon the property of McCrory for the amount due Shines.
Judgment affirmed.
