34 Ala. 716 | Ala. | 1859
There was no error in allowing proof that Sterrett, to whom the sheriff conveyed the land, was the purchaser, instead of Mazange & Co., to whom the sheriff in his return asserted that the sale was made. The sheriff’s return is not conclusive against the purchaser at his sale. — Jackson v. Sternbergh, 1 Johns. Cases, 153; Mitchell v. Lipe, 8 Yerg. 179; Wheaton v. Sexton, 4 Wheaton, 503; Jackson v. Walker, 4 Wend. 462 ; Ingersoll v. Sawyer, 2 Pick. 276.
The judgment of the court below is affirmed.
