append statement

in the below code , why the append statement didnt executed and it will be executed only if you remove the load statement



<script type="text/javascript">

$(document).ready(function(e) {
   
    $("button").click(function(e) {

        $("div").append(" this is an appended content to the div");

       
        $("div").load('test1.txt');
       
       
    });
   
   
});

</script>
