Syllabus
<p>1. Execution—distribution of proceeds of sale. Sec. 13, of ch. 77, R. S. 1874, entitled “ Judgments and Executions,” which requires a distribution of the proceeds of sales under execution, pro rata, on the several executions, according to their amounts, has no application to sales of personal property, but relates solely to sales of real estate, where the liens of the judgments are concurrent.</p> <p>2. Same—order of lien on personalty. Judgments are not liens upon personal property, and executions issued thereon become liens upon such property in the order in which they come to the officer’s hands, the first in point of time having a priority.</p>
