Tjie officer is then required to summon appraisers, and after the appraisement the party is entitled to select from the inventory $1,000 worth of the property as exempt, and in ease he fails to. do so the officer selects for him. If the party fails to point out the whole of his personal property, or to include a portion thereof in his inventory, and conceals some, as is alleged in this bill, which the motion to dissolve does not deny, then, under section 2007, Rev. St., the jurisdiction of a court of equity may be invoked to ascertain the property omitted, and to determine what property shall be set apart as exempt, and pending the proceedings it is entirely proper to enjoin the sheriff from setting apart as exempt any personal property which has been levied upon.””
