Hanna, J.

Suit on a note, and to foreclose a mortgage; and, also, ‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‍on a note which was not secured by said mortgage, but which, it is averred, was given for a part of the consideration money ‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‍of the said land mortgaged. There was a judgment for the amount of both notes, and that the equity of redemption be foreclosed, ‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‍and the land sold to satisfy said judgment. There was no averment of insolvency, or a want of other property, &c. See Scott v. Crawford, 12 Ind. 410.

Per ‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‍Guriam. — The judgment was erroneous, as to the amount of the note not included in the mortgage; and, therefore, so much of it is ‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​‍reversed. In all other respects, the judgment is affirmed, at appellees’ costs.
