““In the case of Collier v. Cowger, 52 Ark. 322 ( 12 S. W. 702 , 6 L. R. A. 107), the court held that a judgment against a covenantee in possession upon the foreclosure of a lien created prior to the covenant, rendered after notice to the warrantor to appear and defend, is conclusive of the existence of an outstanding paramount incumbrance, and cited.' in support of the opinion, the case of Boyd v. Whitefield, 19 Ark. 447 . In the latter case, the. covenantor had notice of the pendency of the suit in ample time to afford him an opportunity to be made a defendant, but there was no formal notice by the covenantee demanding him to defend the action. These eases are conclusive of the propositions of law involved in this case. * * * ””
