Harrison, J.

The lien of the landlord continues but for six months after the rent becomes due. Sec, 4098 Gantt’sDigest.

And where there has been a conversion of the crop, or a. portion of it, by one with knowledge of the lien, and it attaches in equity to the proceeds in his hands, its continuance is only for the same period, for equity follows the-law. Valentine v. Hamlett, Ad’r., MS. Opinion.
