Upon the introduction of an execution with an entry of levy thereon showing that at the time of the levy the property was in the possession of the defendant named in the execution, the burden was upon the claimant to prove his title. The writing offered in evidence, being a bill of sale of personalty, was not required to be recorded; and the record was not constructive or implied notice to any one. Civil Code, § 4208.
