¶1 (concurring).
¶2 I concur in the opinion of the majority of the court that the instrument executed by Jones is not within the terms of Article 6824, Revised Civil Statutes, and that the lien of the attaching creditor does not prevail over it. Therefore, the attaching creditor is left with the rights he had at common law, and can claim as against such unrecorded instrument, only the actual interest of Jones at the time of the levy.
¶3 Affirmed.
