Description
Messrs. W. A. Meloy and F. Miller, for the appellant, referred to Barrows v. Baughman,1 Haley v. Prosser,2 and numerous other cases, to show that a builder's lien cannot exist where the agreement provides for another sort of security. Mr. W. A. Cook, contra, cited The Kimball,3 and many cases, arguing from them, and on principle, that a lien is never extinguished by a mere note, except on the plainest evidence of an intention to extinguish it; but on the contrary, when a lien clearly exists, that a note is always regarded as but cumulative.
