Hawkins v. Files
51 Ark. 417
Opinion
The lien acquired by the levy of an execution upon lands is superior to that of a prior unrecorded mortgage, even though the mortgage be subsequently filed for record before sale. This is in accordance with Main v. Alexander, 9 Ark., 112. See annotation to the case cited; also Dodd v. Parker, 40 Ark., 536; Wing v. Ringo, 49 Ib., 457.
Affirmed.
