On the 30th of March, 1904, the Delta Cotton Company and Edward Cary, trustee, instituted this suit, against the Arkansas Cotton Oil Company, in the Jefferson Chancery Court, to foreclose a certain deed of trust and to recover the value of certain cotton seed. Plaintiffs alleged in their complaint that W. B. Powell, on the 30th day of January, 1903, executed to *433Edward Cary, as trustee, and to the Delta Cotton Company, as a beneficiary, a deed of trust whereby he conveyed,- among other things, the entire crop of cotton, cotton seed and corn grown and to be grown during the. year 1903 on certain described -real estate in the county of Jefferson and State of Arkansas, in trust to secure the payment of a certain indebtedness; that the deed of trust was duly acknowledged and filed for record in the recorder’s office of Jefferson County, on the 30th day of January, 1903; that of the indebtedness secured by the deed of trust the sum of $8,000 now remains due and unpaid; that Powell during the year 1903 sold and delivered to the defendant cotton seed embraced within the trust deed; and that the cotton seed so sold and deliv» ered was about ninety tons, of the value of about $1,800, and was sold on or about October 14, 26 and 30, and November 14, all in the year 1903; and that the defendant has appropriated and converted the cotton seed and the proceeds thereof to his own use and benefit, and has failed to account, on demand, to plaintiffs, or either of them, therefor.
Among other defenses which we do not consider necessary to notice, the defendant states: (1) The cotton seed mentioned was not included in the deed of trust. (2) The cotton seed was sold to it with the consent of plaintiffs.
The chancery court, upon the hearing of this cause, sustained both of the defenses, and dismissed the compaint for want of equity; and the Delta Cotton Company appealed.
The cotton seed described and conveyed to the trustee by the deed of trust executed by Powell was the cotton seed grown or to be grown during the year 1903 on the certain lands described in the deed of trust. Powell covenanted with the trustee that the seed was free from all incumbrances and charges, and that he would warrant and defend the title thereto unto the trustee, his successors and assigns, forever, against the lawful claims of all persons. The seed in controversy was grown during the 3'ear 1903, and on the lands described in the deed of trust, by tenants and share croppers of Powell, except 15 tons, which were grown by Powell, and were acqhired by him, Powell, before the sale to the defendant.
In Apperson v. Moore, 30 Ark. 56, this court held, in the absence of a statute, that “where a mortgage is executed on an *434unplanted crop a lien attaches in equity as soon as the subject of the mortgage comes into existence, and in a proceeding ho foreclose will be enforced against the mortgagor and those holding under him with record notice.”
Section 5405, Kirby’s Digest, provides: “All mortgages executed on crops planted, or to be planted, shall have the same force and effect to bind such crops and their products as other mortgages now have to bind property already in being.” Under this statute this court held in Jarratt v. McDaniel, 32 Ark. 598, that a mortgage on an unplanted crop is valid at law, and the mortgagee can maintain replevin for the mortgaged property against a purchaser thereof for a valuable consideration, the mortgage having been filed for record before the purchase.
In Williams v. Cunningham, 52 Ark. 439, this court said: “It is the result of all the authorities that wherever the parties by their contract intend to create a positive lien or charge, either upon real or personal property, whether then owned by the assignor or contractor or not, or, if personal property, whether it is then in esse, it attaches in equity as a lien or charge upon the particular property as soon as the assignor or contractor acquires a title thereto under him, either voluntarily or with notice by record.”
The cotton seed in controversy was included in the deed of trust, and was held, bound, and conveyed by it to the trustee in trust to secure the payment of Powell’s indebtedness to the Delta Cotton Company.
The preponderance of the evidence shows that plaintiffs or either of them did not consent that Powell should sell the seed. The deed of trust in effect prohibits the sale of the seed by Powell. No witness testified that plaintiffs expressly consented to the sale. Powell testified that he inferred such consent from circumstances which were clearly overcome by the evidence in the case.
Appellee cites Blakemore v. Eagle, 73 Ark. 477, to show that the cotton seed in controversy was not included in the deed of trust executed by Powell. But it does not do so. The deed of trust involved in the case cited describes the property mortgaged as follows: “The entire crop of cotton and corn that I may raise or cause to be raised and cultivated during the year 1898 on my plantation known as the Blakemore place in Lonoke *435County, * * * being about 1,400 acres in cotton and 400 in corn,” etc. The cotton in controversy in that case was raised by tenant or tenants of Blakemore, who executed the deed of trust, and not by Blakemore. The court was of the opinion that the cotton was not covered by the deed of trust. A comparison of description of the property mortgaged in the deeds of trust in the two cases will show that the case cited does not support the contention of appellee.
Reversed and remanded for decree and proceedings consistent with this opinion.
