Start, J.
When this case was before this Court and heard upon the report of the special master, as reported in 73 Vt. 134, 50 Atl. 810, it was held that the mortgage executed by Lydia Hutchinson and her husband, and sought to be foreclosed, was void because the name of the husband was not inserted in the body of the mortgage deed as a grantor; that this could not be validated without statutory power therefor; that the transaction could not be treated as an equitable mortgage; that the defendants did not hold the premises in trust for the petitioner; that we could not well say, from the record, whether the necessary elements to make a case for recission of the contract existed; and thereupon the case was remanded to the Court of Chancery without directing a final decree against the petitioner, but leaving him at liberty to apply further if he should be so advised.
After the cause was remanded to the Court of Chancery, the petitioner there attempted-to amend his petition; but in *391doing so he brought no material fact upon the record that was .not in the original petition, or the report of the master, and considered by us on the former hearing. It does not appear why the name of the husband was not inserted in the body of the mortgage as a grantor. It may have been omitted by mistake, ignorance of the draftsman, fraud of Mrs. Hutchinson, or by the mutual agreement of the parties. Wie are not informed of the reason for the omission. It is still a matter of conjecture. We are no better informed, nor have we any other or different facts from those before us on the former hearing, when we considered that the necessary elements for a recission of the contract were not before us, and left the petitioner at liberty to apply further if so advised. The facts now before us being the same as those considered by us when we held that, on the petitioner’s showing, he was not entitled to the relief prayed for, the holding, in this respect, must be the same as it was then.
