Opinion of the Court
SEMMES, J.:
In this case, an execution in favor of William Bpear from the bill of sale, that the horse was the separate property of Mrs. Kendrick; on the contrary, it appears from the evidence that the property was purchased and paid for by the husband, there being no evidence that the money was that of the wife.
These points embrace all the rulings of the Court below upon the trial of the cause, and with the exception stated, we are not disposed to overrule them. They are made in conformity with our statute, and we see no reason to doubt their correctness.
Judgment below affirmed.
