Opinion

Judgment reversed and judgment for plaintiff in error. See journal entry.

It is ordered and adjudged by this court, that the judgment of the said court of appeals be, and the same hereby is, reversed. And this court coming now to render such judgment as the court of appeals should have rendered, it appearing that the original notes aggregating $330 upon which defendant in error was surety have been paid in full, thereby discharging the note of $330 executed and delivered to defendant in error contemporaneously with the chattel mortgage and which debt was the debt described in the affidavit to said chattel mortgage when the same was filed with the county recorder, and this court being of the opinion that this chattel mortgage could not be made to apply to other liabilities incurred by defendant in error for said mortgagors by a verbal contract or arrangement between the parties of which a subsequent mortgagee had no knowledge and which were not described in the affidavit to said chattel mortgage, it is therefore, ordered and adjudged that the petition of the defendant in error be and the same hereby is dismissed.
