102 Ga. 9 | Ga. | 1897
Goldman recovered a judgment in the city court of Atlanta, against Mrs. Mary F. S. Lane. Execution issued thereon was levied on a house and lot in the city of'Atlanta, the entry of levy reciting; “This property is held by said Mary F. S. Lane under a bond for title made by G. S. Prior about 1887, conditioned to convey to her the above described land in fee simple, upon the payment' of the purchase-price therein named, and the purchase-price has been partially paid, and the entire interest stipulated in said bond is levied upon in accordance with section 3586 of the Code of Georgia.” A claim was interposed by Joseph E. Dent, as trustee for Mrs. Lane and her children. At the conclusion of the evidence offered by the plaintiff in fi. fa., the court dismissed the levy, and this is assigned as error.
It appeared from the evidence that Stegall, the grandfather of Mrs. Lane, had bequeathed certain shares of railroad-stock to her and her children. The will provided, that the railroad-stock was to be managed by a trustee, and that the dividends were to be paid to Mrs. Lane as they were collected, and that Joseph E. Dent was to be the trustee, who should ha,ve “full power to manage said trust property for the proper use and benefit of said beneficiaries;” Dent qualified and took charge
Judgment affirmed.
