Section 141. Duration and effect of lien

Such lien shall terminate unless
  an action is brought to enforce the same within three months  after  the
  date  of  filing  such  notice,  as  provided  in  article  nine for the
  enforcement of a lien upon a chattel. If the labor upon such  sandstone,
  cement stone, granite, bluestone, limestone or marble is performed for a
  contractor under a contract with the owner of such quarry, mine, yard or
  dock,  the  owner  shall not be liable to pay by reason of all the liens
  filed against such quarry, mine, yard or dock, a greater  sum  than  the
  amount  unpaid upon such contract at the time of filing such notices, or
  in case there is no contract, than the aggregate amount  unpaid  of  the
  value  of  labor  and  services  performed,  pursuant  to  the preceding
  section. The lien created by  this  article  shall  not  attach  to  any
  material which shall have become a part of any building or structure, or
  ceased  to  be  the  property  of  the  person  for  whom such labor was
  performed.
