Decisions of the Supreme Court of
Georgia.
DEUVEBED AT ATLANTA, TUESDAY, JULY 18, 1871.
From the Atlanta Constitution ]
Rust, Johnson & Co. et al., vs. Robecca Bil-
lingsloa et ol.— Milton Greightonct al-, vs. John
R. Jones et ah Equity, from Dougherty.
Wabneb, J.—This was a bill filed by the ad
ministrator of Billingfiiea for directions as to the
payment of the debts of bis intestate out of the
assets in his hands (the estate being insolvent),
inaluding tho widow’s right to dower, home
stead etc.
Bctd, That the neceesary expenses of the ad
ministration, including tho provision showed
for the support of the family of tho intestate, |
be paid ont of the general funds of the estate.
Held, alto, That the decree of the court be
low in favor of Milton Creighton, trustees, etc ,
be affirmed as to the amount thereof, and being
a debt due by the intestate as trustee, is to be
paid next aftor the expenses of administration
and tho year’s support of the intestate’s family.
It appears from the record that on the 11th
October, 18GC, tho intestate, Billingslea, and
Vason, jointly purchased from Jones tho Mott
and Clayton plantations, gave their joint notes
therefor, Jones making a deed to them jointly
for tho land, and they, at the same time, jointly
executed a mortgage to Jones on the land to
secure the payment of the notes given for
the purchase money thereof. The purchasers
of the land occupied it jointly for one year,
then Yason relinquished his interest in it to tho
intestate, who occupied and cultivated the same
to the time of bis death on bis own account
Jones was no party to the contract between Va
son and Billingslea.
Jit Id, That the seizin of tbo intestate of tho
land embraced in tho Mott and Clayton planta
tions, was sufficient in law, under the provis
ions of tho revised Code of this State, to entitle
his widow to dower therein; that a mortgage
in this Stato is only a security for a debt, and
passes no title; that tho mortgage on tho land
was a lien created by tho parties making it,
which cannot defeat the widow’s right to dower;
that inasmnch ns tho mortgage lien on tho un
divided half of Molt and Clayton’s plantations,
was not created by the intestate ns the husband
of the widow, but by Vason, who subsequently
convoyed the land to tho intcslnto with the cn-
cumbranco of tho mortgage, tho widow, before
sho can enjoy her dawor in tho undivided half
of tho land conveyed to her hnsband by Vason,
with tho incumbranco of Jones’ mortgago,
must first discharge that 'incumbrance created
by Vason to Jones, the snmo not being a lien
created by her husband but a lien which existed
on tho laud at tho time the hnsband acquired
his title thereto from Vason. It is also dis
closed by the reoord that on January 31, 1868,
Billingslea, the intestate, drew his draft in favor
of Thomas Hill, for tbo sum of $4,322 39, payable
Ifith Novomber next, aftor date, upon Messrs.
Rust, Johnson & Co., Albany, and to secure
the payment of that draft, the intestate, on
tho same day, executed his mortgage deed to
Hill for his undivided half interest in the tract
of land, known as tho Hill plantation, the sum
specified in tho draft being the amount due Hill
by the intestate for his share of the original pur
chase money for the Hill plantation. This draft
was ooceptod by Messrs. Rust Johnson & Co.,
for the accommodation of tho drawer, and paid
by them as such accommodation acceptors, they
having no funds of tho intestate drawer in their
bands at the time of their acceptance of tho
draft.
It also appears from the record, that Rust,
Johnson & Co. refused to accept the draft of
tho intestate, unless the mortgage was made,
and that it was agreed that the mortgage should
bo transferred to them on payment of the draft
by them. The draft was paid at matnrity, and
the mortgage was transferred to them on the
25th of November, I8C8:
Held, That, under the general rule, applicable
to the payment of the debt by accommodation
acceptors, or securities, they would have been
entitled to the transfer of tho mortgage: most
certainly they were entitled to such transfer,
under tlio special agreement of the parties, as
shown by tho rocord, and were entitled to the
same spocifio lien on the Hill plantation, or the
proceeds of the sale thereof, as the original
mortgage, and to have tho same paid, according
to the priority of its lion upon that specific
property included in the mortgage.
Held, also, That tho widow of‘the intestate
was not entitled to a homestead and personal
exemption out of his property in addition to her
dowor and provision for her year’s support.
Held, further, That the factor’s lien of Rust.,
Johnson & Co. was not entitled to priority of
payment out of the proceeds of tho crops made
on the Mott Clayton plantation in the years
1808 and 1809, on tho statement of facts dis
dosed in the record.
lldd, also, That overseers, unless they are
employed as common day laborers, and work
as such on the plantation, are not entitled to
priority of lien for the payment of their wages
under the not of 1809.
Lot the judgment and decree of the court be-
• low be • revorsed, and a decree be rendered in
conformity with tho judgment of this court on
the questions made in the bill of exceptions as
set forth in tho record.
Judgment reversed.
Loosbake, O. J., dissenting.—For reasons
given in the case of Slaughter vs. Culpepper, I
dissent from so much of the judgment in these
cases as gives to tho widow of Francis A. Bil-
lingslcn dower in his interest in the lands pur
chased of Jones, and upon which, simultane
ously with the deed, and ns a part of the same
transaction, a mortgage was executed for the
purchase tnonoy so far as such right of dewer is
preferred by the judgment to the claim of the
vendor under the faots in the caso.

Application for dower, from Mitchell county.
MoOay, J.—Under sections 1753 and 1759 of
tho revised Code of this State, which provide,
that a widow is entitled to dower in all lands of
which her husband died, seized and possessed,
and that no lien created by the hnsband during
his life shall in any manner interfere with the
same, a mortgage made by the husband, for the
purchase money, cotemporaneously with the
deed to him by the vendor, passing as it does
“no title’’ and being only a lien created by the
husband is no bar to her right of dower, nor is
her dower subject to the same.
A widow is, in this State, entitled to dower in
lands bargained by the husband, in his lifetime
to a third person, the purchase money remain-
ing unpaid and the title to the land being re
tained by the husband, in himself, until his
death.
Judgment reversed.
Lochbane, J., dissenting —I dissent from the
judgment of cite Court in this case, for the fol
lowing legal reasons: While I recognize dower
as favored by law, and fully appreciate the force
of section 1753 of the Code declaring the right
of the wife in one-tliird of the lands of which
her husband dies seized and possessed; and
'section 1944, that a mortgago in this State is
only security for a debt, and passes no title
and also section 1859, which declares no lien
created by the husband in Lis lifetime shall, in
any manner, interfere with the right of dower,
yet I am of opinion, where the contract under
which the land was bought embraced the condi
tion of a mortgage as the security of the pur
chase money, and the deed and mortgage were
simultaneously made and constituted in law one
act, that dower does not attach as against the
vendor for the purchase money. The rule
laid down in 21 Ga, 408, and the reasoning of
the Court appear to me conclusive of the
question. Taking the whole transaction to
gether, it was a conditional sale, and the
title never did re3t in the mortgagor, ex
cept encumbered with the debt, to-wit: the
purchase money. If the purchaser, after re
ceiving the deed, had refused to execute
tho mortgage, the contract of purchase was in
complete and would be rescinded ; it took both
instruments to consummate the agreement of
purchase. The lieus which dower displaces are
liens created by the husband on his land, but
this land is not his nnder the contract without
paying for it. While every consideration of
public policy demands that the widow shonld be
favored in her rights of dower as to the estate
of her husband, I do not think she is entitled
to her dower in the property of another. I am
of the opinion that the contract to buy and se
cure the purchase money was one—that both
instruments were essential to its perfection—
and being simultaneously made, had tho effect,
not of lien only, bnt of a higher obligation,
paramount to dower, in that it was the condi
tion and-terms of the contract by which the land
was acquired.
