The corporation brought a bill in equity to enforce a statutory lien for materials furnished contractors who constructed a building for appellants. From a final decree for the complainant the defendants appealed. The contention here is that as there was no privity between the corporation and the owner of the property, the lien depends upon the statutory cautionary notice which is claimed to be insufficient in form and substance.
Section 2211 of the General Statutes of 1906, provides that “A person entitled to acquire a lien, not in privity with the owner, * shall acquire a lien upon such owners’ real or personal property as ag'ainst him, and persons claiming through his death, and purchasers and creditors with notice, by the delivery to him, or his agent, of a written notice that the contractor or other person for whom the labor has been performed, or the materials furnished, is indebted to the person performing the labor furnishing the materials in the sum stated in the notice; but if a preson who is performing or is about to perform, by himself or others, labor, or is furnishing or is about to furnish materials shall so desire, he may deliver to the owner, or his agent, a written cautionary notice that he will do certain work, or will furnish certain materials, or both. A lien shall exist from the time of the service of the notice for the amount unpaid on the contract of and by the owner to the contractor or the person for whom the work was done or the material furnished.
“Such service shall also create a personal liability against the owner of the property in favor of the lienor giving such notice for the amount due him as aforesaid, but not to a greater extent than the amount of such original contract.’’
*888The notice given was as follows : .
“Cautionary Notice.
“To Mr. F. J. Kennard, Architect.
“Notice- is hereby given that the Southern Lumber & Supply Co., a corporation existing under the laws of the State of Florida and having i-t's principal place of business in the City of Tampa, is furnishing, or is about to furnish, lumber and other building material and will furnish lumber and other building material to J.

“Dec. 22, 1914.
“Note:
This notice is not given as a reflection upon-the contractor, but is given as required by law and in ac*889cordance with the rules of- the Retail Lumber Dealers Association and for your protection as well as for ours.
“Southern Lumber & Supply Co.

In this case the objection to the notice was not made till after final decree. This may be regarded as a waiver; but aside from the waiver, the objection is not well taken. The provision that the material man “may deliver to the owner, or his agent, a written cautionary notice, that he will * furnish certain materials,” does not require that the “certain”'materials referred to shall be stated in detail.
The notice states that the material is “Lumber and other building- material * for the building- and erection of that certain building for B. M. Reed,” &c.
The notice is not wholly insufficient to accomplish the statutory purpose.
The decree is affirmed.
