E. A. Spencer sold a pair, of mules to C. W. Humphrey, reserving- title in the purchase-money notes given therefor. These notes with retention of title were recorded in Gwinnett county within thirty days of their execution. The defendant, W. H. Eowe, purchased the mules from Humphrey before the record, of the conditional sale. The original vendor brought an action of trover against Eowe to recover the mules or their value, which resulted in a verdict for the plaintiff. The court refused a new-trial, and the defendant excepted.
Judgment reversed.
