Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>Mechanic’s Lien — Proof that Material Was Used in Construction of Building. To entitle a person to a lien for material furnished in the erection of a building- it devolves on the claimant to show that the material was purchased for and applied to that use, but if it be shown that the material was purchased to be used in the building and delivered to the builder, or taken by him to his premises to be so used, and some evidence is offered that material of that character was actually used in the building, in the absence of any discrediting circumstances it will ordinarily be sufficient to show that the material was used in the building.</p>
