— This was an original bill by White, in the nature of a supplemental bill, in which the complainant states
The plaintiffs in error contend that the decree is not sustained by the testimony in the cause. It is not necessary to advert to any part of the testimony, except that which relates to the purchase of Green’s interest in the lots by Holt during the pendency of the complainant’s bill to foreclose. It appears that Holt purchased from Green on the 17th of September, 1839, and obtained a deed from The- Jeffersonville Association on the 5th of October following. The bill to foreclose was filed on the 30th of August, 1839, and subpoena served on the 2d of September, 1839, and at the November term, 1839,. a decree directing the defendant to pay, &c., was entered.
The principle is now too well settled to be even doubted,
It is proved that the lots mortgaged by Green to White are the same that were sold by the former to Holt, and conveyed to Holt by The Jeffersonville Association. We are, therefore, of opinion that there is no error in the decree of the Circuit Court.
— The decree is affirmed, with 3 per cent, damages and costs.
