The opinion

McFaeland, J.,

dissented as follows:

I agree fully in the conclusion, but from so much of the reasoning and comments upon the cases of Brown v. Vanleer, and Green v. Demoss, as seems to imply that a vendor who has made a deed having-only an implied vendor’s lien, has a lien superior to the claim of a. creditor, who, before any steps have been taken by the vendor, has actually accepted the benefits of a deed of trust upon the land to secure-his debt.
