Simmons, C. J.
The case turning upon the question whether or not the descriptive words “eight horse-power Eclipse engine on sills, 6x9 cylinder, No. 4547," as used in a bail-trover declaration and the judgment rendered thereon, included a hoiler and certain attachments thereto, and this question having been fairly submitted to the jury by the court in its charge, and they having upon sufficient evidence determined it in the defendant’s favor, there is no cause for granting a new trial.
Judgment affirmed.
The testimony for the plaintiff shows the following: The property described in the levy is a part and embraced in the description set forth in the judgment. At the time the property was shipped out by hlalsby & Avery for the Erick Co. to N. Rawlins, the boiler and attachments levied on were attached to the engine proper, as indicated in a picture in evidence, forming one piece of machinery. The boiler, which rested upon sills on the ground, was under the rest of the machinery or the engine proper, which was fitted down in grooves, fastened to the boiler with iron bolts and screwed on with nuts or taps. Thus put up it is described as an “Eclipse engine on sills,” which description embraces both the engine and the boiler and the other attachments. The Erick Company or their agents do not make or sell them any other way. If an engine without the boiler is meant, it is described simply as “an engine,” or if a boiler without the engine is meant, it is described simply as “a boiler”; but when the term “Eclipse engine on sills” is. used, it means both the engine and boiler with the attachments put together, as before stated and as shown by the picture. The engine and boiler may be detached, and by making proper pipe connections the engine may be run with some other boiler, or the boiler may be used with another engine; but the Frick Company does not sell them that way. When so detached and separated, they are two different and distinct machines. When this engine was shipped by the company’s agents, the number 4547 was on the engine, and the number 1490 was on the boiler. When afterwards found in defendant’s possession, the name of Erick Company bad been chiseled off tbe boiler, as if to destroy its identity. He said be bad detached tbe engine from tbe boiler after be got possession of it; and gave as a reason for so doing, that it worked better that way. Tbe boiler and attachments were set off two or three feet from tbe engine, and were connected with it by a pipe. This was tbe condition when tbe sheriff, Rogers, first went to get tbe property in satisfaction of tbe judgment. Defendant then objected to Rogers taking tbe boiler and attachments described in tbe levy, but surrendered tbe engine and insisted on Rogers giving him a receipt which be caused to be written, and Rogers signed it, viz: “Received of S.E. Horne one eight horse-power Eclipse engine on sills, 6x9 cylinder, No. 4:54=7, to satisfy an execution in favor of Erick & Oo. vs. S. E. Horne.” Rogers did not take tbe engine in full settlement of tbe judgment, but turned it over to Avery for plaintiff. Avery did not take it in satisfaction of tbe judgment, and instructed Rogers to seize tbe balance of tbe property, tbe part described in tbe levy, which was done.
Eor defendant tbe testimony was, that be bought tbe property levied on, at administrator’s sale of N. Rawlins’ estate. Tbe engine and boiler were then attached together, as described in plaintiff’s testimony and as represented in tbe picture. Afterwards defendant detached them because be thought they worked better; and when ex-sheriff Hargrove served tbe papers in tbe original trover suit, they were two or three feet apart, both on sills, and connected by pipes to convey steam from tbe boiler to tbe engine. They were tbe same way when defendant gave up tbe engine to Rogers. When Hargrove served tbe trover suit be seized only tbe engine. Defendant gave bond and replevied tbe property. Tbe bail-bond was for tbe engine seized, not for tbe boiler and attachments. Both defendant and Hargrove understood that tbe engine only was sued for. Defendant gave up tbe engine to Rogers, in satisfaction of the judgment; and plaintiff received it without notice to defendant that it was not received in satisfaction. The engine can be used separately from the boiler to run other machinery with any other boiler, and the boiler can be used separately and with any other engine; a boiler and engine are separate and distinct machines. Defendant has bought such engines and boilers separately of another make; bought them as an engine and boiler; is now running the boiler in dispute with another engine. The name on this boiler may have been knocked off with the iron fire-stick in shutting the door, or by wood. The engine and boiler had different numbers.
The grounds of the motion for new trial are, that the verdict is contrary to law and evidence; and that the court erred in charging: “If you find that the property levied upon was not actually included in the trover suit and judgment of recovery thereon in the case of Frick Co. against S. E. Horne, you should find a verdict for the defendant.” (The court also charged the jury to look to all the facts and circumstances to see whether or not the property was included in the trover suit.) Alleged to be error, in that the jury were liable to understand the court to mean, that although the property levied upon may have been covered by and embraced in the words and terms of description used in the trover suit and in the judgment of recovery therein, yet they should find for the defendant if they found that said property was not “actually included in” said suit and judgment, thus giving the jury an opportunity to contradict by their verdict, and find contrary to the very language and terms of said suit and judgment of recovery.
