63 Ala. 335 | Ala. | 1879
A bill for the foreclosure of a mortgage should so describe the mortgaged property, that, if a sale is ordered, the officer of the court may with certainty and safety execute the decree, and that purchasers may be informed of the particular premises which are exposed to sale, and which they can acquire. — Long v. Pace, 42 Ala. 495; Williams v. Roe, 59 Ala. 629; Whitney v. Beal, 5 Blackf. 143. If the mortgage is not certain in its description of the premises upon which it operates, and it is capable of being rendered certain by reference to extrinsic facts, these facts should be averred in the bill.
Beversed and remanded.
