The deed was filed for record August 27, 1892 — some four months prior to the date of the deed to Linda M. Adams, under which plaintiff claims — and, according to its *Page 159 terms, conveyed a lot lying in Twin Lake Park in Santa Cruz County, described as lot 10, block 2 . . . subdivision No. 6, as the same is shown on the map of Twin Lake Park…

The court is satisfied with the discussion of the case in the opinion of the district court of appeal of the first district, and for the reasons stated in that opinion, it is ordered that the judgment be reversed. We cite the additional case of Hall v. Bartlett, 158 Cal. 641 , [ 112 P. 176 ], which is very closely in point. The following is the opinion of the District Court of Appeal of the first appellate district, above referred to and approved, rendered on September 24, 1914.
