The judicial functions were actually exercised by the Vice-Chancellor.

(Journ. Ass. 1828, p. 100.) In December, 1832, a committee of the House of Assembly reported, " That whatever difference of opiniou may exist as to the best mode of organizing a Court of Equity in this Province, it cannot be denied that the in- stitution of such a tribunal possessing extensive powers is imperiously called for, and cannot be delajed without subjecting His Majesty's subjects to the continuance of an evil amounting to a denial of justice in prosecuting and maintaining some of their most important rights." And yet it was delayed for nearly five years. Bills for the establishment of a Court of Chancery were in- troduced into the Assembly in the sessions of 18;{2-3,^ 1835 and 1830, but were in each case shelved. In 1835 the Colonial Secretary of the Melbourne Government, in a despatch to Sir ..lohn Colborne (15th June, 1835) referred to the fact that there was then no Court administering etjuily in Upper Canada, and as- signed that fact as one of the reasons for refusing assent to the bill incorporating the Upper ('anada Life Assur- ance and Trust Company. Lord (Jlenelg writes to the Governor as follows: "As there is no Court of Ecjuity in the Province, I do not perceive how any remedy is to be had for the neglect or breach of any trust which the company may undertake." There was at that time in Upper Canada no process by which ii mortgage could be foreclosed. (App. to Journ. Ass. 183(J-7, No. 10, p. 4; letter of Daniel Jones, of Urockville, to Lord (Jlenelg, November 27, 1835). The company had in its bill more than supplied this lack of ecpiity jurisdiction, and had de- vised for itself as intending mortgagee a special law of mortgage. On this feature of the bill the Colonial Sec- retary says: ** In favour of this company an entire alter- ation is made of the law of mortgages.

(.lonrnal of Assembly, WW, p. 2(»;{-4.) The Colonial Oflice was tirm in its refusal to sanction such special le^nslation (.lourn. Ass. ls:»i-7, p. 1S!>); and tinally. in ls:{7. an art (//) was passed erecting,' a Court of Chancery and vestinj,' in it the general power over niort^'a;,M's. The eleventh section of this Act shows, in ^Miarded terms, the harshness of the previous law. S XI.— Ani> whrreah tlie law of England was at an early period intro (iuced into tliia I'rovince, and lias continued to be the rule of decision in all matters of controversy relative to property and civil rights ; while at the same time, from the want of an equitable jurisdiction, it has not been in the power of mortf,'aj»ee8 to foreclose, and mort- f,'a^,ors beinf; out of possession have been unable to avail themselves of their equity of redenii)tion ; and in consequence of the want of these remedies, the ri(^lits of the respective parties, or of their heirs, executors, administrators or assi^jns, may be found to be attended with peculiar equitable considerations, as well in regard to com- pensation for improvements, as in respect to the right to redeem, depending on the circumstances of each case, and a strict application of the rules established in England might be attended with injustice : He it therefore enacted by the authority aforesaid. That the Vice- Chancellor of the said Court shall have power and authority in all cases of mortgage, where before the passing of this Act the estate has become absolute in law, by failure in performing the condition, to make such order and decree in respect to foreclosure or redemp- tion, and with regard to compensation for improvements, and generally with respect to the rights and claims of the mortgagor and mortgagee, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators or assigns, as may appear to him just and reasonable under all the circumstances of the case, subject however to the appeal piovided by this Act.

We may prolllably inseit here a few of the general principles which govern the jn-actice of foreclosure. Tiii'KK Mist He Defailt. — To give a moitgagee a present right to foreclosure thei'e must be default in the mortgage under which he means to proceed. A mortgagee who hohls several nu)rtgages in fee on the same land, one of which is not due, cannot foreclose that mortgage with the others (jr). The default, however, may be the default o\' nien-ly an instalment of nrincipal or interest, and not neces- sarily the default of the whole principal. («) 111 a cnse in 1 Chy. Cli. 297 (Ilendersou v.

It is true other causes of action may, under the present rules, be joined with an action for foreclosure; so that possibly an action for forecl(»sure mit,'ht be brou^jht against the mortgagor, joined with an action against a person claiming a para- mount title. The Court, however, might exercise its discretion by separating these causes of action (/). Plaintiff Shoild Use Diligence in Framing Ac- tion. — While great freedom of amendment is allowed a plaint itT under the present practice in foreclosure, it ia still incumbent on him to use some diligence in framing his proceedings; as, for instance, in indorsing his writ with the relief reipiired (/), or in tinding out the correct parties defendant (A). I'kusons Entitled to Mortgage Monev and to Kquity Must Be 1'arties. — Generally speaking, there can be no redemption or foreclosure unless all the per- sons entitled to the mortgage money and to the equity are before the Court. Thus, a person entitled to a sixth part only of a sum on mortgage is not at liberty to bring an action for foreclosure of a sixth part of the mortgaged estate (/). On the other hand, a person having a partial interest in the ecpiity of redemption cannot maintain an action for redemption in the absence of the other parties interested {ni). If necessary, one of twc joint mortgagees may make the other a defendant (y/).

Joint Owners of Mortgage. — The subject of joint ownership of a mortgage has been touched on in the introduction under the sub-heading, " Persons entitled to mortgage money and lO equity must be parties."* Where the mortgage expresses tliat the money is ad- vanced on joint account, the incident of survivorship at- taches (a); otherwise the mortgagees n^e treated as ten- ants in common of tlie mortgage mon^y (b). Vendor, Mortgage Back. — A vendor with a mort-^ gage back for the unpaid purchase money may foreclose, and it is no defence to such an action that the vendor (now mortgagee) had no title to a portion of the lands (c). Legal Representative of Mortgagee. — Fisher on Mortgages states: "The person in whom the legal in- terest in the security becomes vested, whether it be by the original mortgage () See Norton v. Wafner, 3 Edw. Ch. (N. Y.) 106 (1837.) tl'p m 1 M Ml I 22 FOUECLOSUUE OF MORTGAGES. is enough to make that man a party who has contracted to stand in the place of the original mortgagee, and all assignees till the title was got in by himself " (c). Assignment Pendente Lite. — By Rule 395, in case of an assignment, creation or devolution of any estate or title pendente lite, the action may be continued by or against the person to or upon whom such estate or title has come or devolved. Person Subrogated to Mortgagee. — By 5G Vict, c. 21, s. 76 (2), when a mortgage is paid off out of a new loan, the discharge is to be registered within six months; but " such registration shall not affect the right (if any) of any mortgagee or purchaser who may have paid off such mortgage to be subrogated to the rights of the mortgagee whose mortgage debt has been so paid " (d). Of co,urse, where a person is entitled to subrogation to the rights of the mortgagee he may bring foreclosure (e). Surety Subrogated to Mortgagee. — " If a person who stands in the relation of surety to a mortgage debt is compelled to pay it, he is entitled lo be subrogated to the rights of the mortgagee, and may foreclose the mort- gage in his own name, without a foriual assignment either in writing or by parol " (/). A surety who has received a mortgage from the primary debtor on his own estate for the same debt as the surety is liable for, may, it seems, combine an action to foreclose this mortgage with an action to redeem the mortgage on which he is liable (g).

Armstrong, 1 0. S. 327 Chy. PARTIES PLAINTIFF. 23 Purchaser After Defective Foreclosure. — Wiltsie on Foreclosure says: "It may be stated gene- rally that a purchaser at a foreclosure sale becomes an equitable assignee of the mortgage foreclosed, for the purpose of maintaining a second or strict foreclosure (/<), to extinguish the liens of junior incumbrancers, who were not made parties to the original action, or of per- fecting a foreclosure in any way defective; he is entitled to an action de novo on the mortgage " (j). B. PERSONS UNDER DISABILITY. Lunatics. — In case of a lunatic, or person of un- sound mind (not so found by inquisition or judicial de- claration), he may sue (1) by his committee (;) ; or (2) by his next friend (k) ; or possibly (3) by the Attorney-General {I). It seems that any person, though financially worth- less, may be a next friend (m), provided the plaintiff is really of unsound mind (/<), and the action is for his benefit (o). An action brought in the name of a lunatic, without either a committee or next friend, is irregular (p). If, after action is commenced, the plaintiff is found a lunatic, the committee should be substituted as a plain- tiff for the next friend (q). " If the plaintiff becomes a (h) " strict foreclosure '-' is what we call foreclosure. (0 S. 92. 0) Rule. 217 Cf. R. S. O. 1897, c. 65 ; R. S. O. 1887, c. 54. {k} Rule. 217 Cf. Porter v.

Married Women. — By the Married Women's Pro- perty Act, 8. 14, Every wonmn " shall have, in her own name against all persons whomsoever, including her hus- band, the same remedies for the protection and security of her own separate property, as if such property belong- ed to her as a feme sole " (,s). It is quite common in Ontario for a wife to hold mortgages, and to execute discharges of or take proceed- ings on them without the concurrence of her husband. It has been held in I'ennsylvania that the discharge by the husband alone of a mortgage to him and wife, but really belonging to her, will not prevent her foreclos- ing (t). There are also American cases to the effect that a husband may validly mortgage his lands to his wife and slio foreclose {u), and that the assignment to her of a mortgage on his lands (r), or the fact of her marrying her mortgagor (jr) does not effect a merger. By Rule 199 (2), " In cases not provided for by the ^larried Women's I'roperty Act, a married woman may sue as plaintilf by her next friend." Infants. — By Rule 197, " An infant may sue by his next friend."

Questions are sometimes raised as to the status of corporations to enforce the remedies on mortgages made to tliein. Gkxeral Power of Corporations to Invest in MoRTGACES.— By R. S. O., 1887, c. 182, " All corporations having money in their hand which it is their duty, or is in their discretion to invest, may invest the same if they see fit in securities, which are a first charge on land lield in fee simple; provided, that such investments are in otlier respects reasonable and proper "(?>). This does not apply to municipal corporations (c). Unauthorized or Illegal Investments. — A loan on real estate, which is unlawful and prohibited by sta- tute, is void; e.g., a loan by a bank directly on the security of real estate ((/). But a loan which is merely beyond the powers of the company's management may )>e enforced, e.g., an unauthorized investment by the trustees of a friendly society (e).

The mode iu which banks are 8Ui)po8ed to take mort- gages is " by way of additional security fo«' debts con- tracted to tlie bank in the course of its business" (A). A moi-tgage giv<'n not to secure n past debt, but to cover a contemporaneous loan (/) or future advances (/), is void. When the bank takes over realty, by foreclosure or otherwise, it is not allowed to hold it (except such as is required for its own use) for more than seven years (A'). Municipal Corporations. — " It would be more in accordance with the policy of the Mortmain Acts if they could not acquire property by foreclosure; but the 27 Victoria not onl.y validates past mortgages on real estate, but authorizes the investment of municipal funds in the same way, and places no restriction upon the remedies in default of payment. And there is probably no serious danger of municipalities holding lands so acquired to any alarming extent " (/). By the Consolidated Municipal Act (m) provision is made for the investment of surplus municipal funds "in first mortgages an real estate held and used for farm purposes and being the first lien on such real estate."

Partners, Who ^Iay Foreclose. - The American rule as to foreclosure by partners is thus stated in Wiltsie on Foreclosure: ** The general rule is that any member of a partnership may bring an action to foreclose a mort- gage given to secure a partnership debt; hence on the death of a member of the partnership, the mortgage may be enforced by the survivor, or survivors, as it is a mere security " (z). The tendency of our Courts is against survivorships, except in cases where the funds are ex- pressed to be advanced on joint account (a), and it is pos- sible that as between the persons interested in the money, the Courts will go behind a joint account clause (It). By Rule 222 partners may sue and be sued in the name of the Arm of which such persons were co-partners at the time of the accruing of the cause of action. Mortgage Taken to One Partner. — Where a mort- gage is taken in the name of one partner to secure a partnership debt, and an action is brought to enforce the security, the representatives, real or personal, of a deceased partner, are not necessary parties (c). {.Tx) See R. S. O., 1887, c. 176, s. 7. (y) R. S. O., 1887, c. 11'), a. 14. Cemetery Companies come under the Companies Act. See 00 Vict. c. 42 (Ont.) {z) Xerr's Supplement to Wiltsie, s. 83 ; citing Younts v.

PARTIES PLAINTIFF. 29 Change of Firm; Effect on Securities. — Ques- tions arc apt to arise in tlie enforcement of mortf^apres made to a lirm, a clianj^e having occurred in the consti- tnt'on of the firm. Lindley says, in his booli on Partner- ship ((/): "It is established that an equitable mortgage by deposit of title deeds mjiy be extended, even by parol, to cover advances made after a change in the firm with which the deeds are lodged (/). And although a legal mortgage to a tirm cannot be converted into an ecpiit- able mortgage merely by parol (/), it may be so converted by a written agreement, and may, as an equitable mort- gage, become available as a security for advances made after a change in the firm to which the legal mortgage was originally given { O. R. 207 ; Smart v, Sorenson, 9 O. R. (140 ; Re Ilewish, 17 O. R. 4r)4 ; Martindale v. Clarkson, fi A. R 1. See further, Blong v. Fitzgerald, If) P.

PARTIES DEFENDANT. 33 f»age, the foreclosure proceedlnj^s must be taken as sub- ject to her dower interest. Making her a party would !-('eniinp;ly be a useless i)roceeding, as whatever claim Hlie has is paramount to the mortgage (/>). Wife of Purchaser of Equity. — Until the death of the purchaser of an equity his wife has no claim to redeem, his estate being a mere equity to which dower does not attach unless he died seised. Until this event Iiappens, therefore, she is not a proper party to the ac- tion {(/). ^Vhere this event does happen, the widow be- ccmies a proi)er party and, semble, even if the husband should die during foreclosure proceedings, between judg- ment and the time for tinal order, she should be added as a party, and a new day given to allow her to re- deem (/•). The American rule appears to be that the wife is a. necessary party (.s). HusnAXD. — It is not usual to make the husband of a mortgagor a party, as such, during the lifetime of his v.ife, unless he has joined in the mortgage. After her decease he may have an estate by the curtesy; and there may still be lingering cases where, during her life, he has such an estate contingent on his survivorship (t). Where the husband has joined in the mortgage it is preferable to join him as a party, if for no other reason than to obtain a personal judgment on the covenant. There does not seem to be any reason for joining (as such) the husband of a purchaser of the equity (u). (p) Cf. Merchants Bank v. Thomson, 55 N. Y. 7 (1873). (q) Monk V. Benjamin, 13 P.

HM 34 FORECLOSURE OF MORTGAGES. ifr it: i ii Holder of the Equity of REDEMrTioN. — The pur- chaser or purchasers of the equity are necessary parties to the writ (r). (1) Joint Owners of Equity. — Where the mort- gaged lands were divided into building lots, and suit brought against some only of the purchasers, the Master of the Rolls allowed the objection that the purchasers of the other lots were necessary parties (;r). The rule works both ways: While a mortgagee is not allowed to " real- ize his securities piecemeal " (x*), he is " entitled to insist that the whole of the mortgaged estate shall be redeemed together; and for this purpose that all the persons in- terested in the several parts of the estate as mortgagors, should be made parties to the bill seeking the account and redemi)tion " (//). (2) ;Mesne 1 l'rciiasers, who have wholly conveyed their interest, need not be made parties to the writ un- less they have become personally liable to the mortgagor for the mortgage debt. In some of the United States it is the rule that a purchaser assuming the debt is di- rectly liable to the holder of the mortgage (.^). This is not the rule in Ontario. It is not uncommon, however, in cases where the mortgagor, or a mesne purchaser, ranks under the heading nulla bona, for the mortgagee to take an assignment of his equitable rights of indem- nity from his immediate purchaser. Our (Courts, how- ever, do not favour the introduction of such claims into a foreclosure action. Thus Burton, J.A., in Walker v. Dickson ((/). says: "This case discloses what, to my old- fashioned notions, appears to be a very strange, and I See Ilule 1!)0 ; Whan v. Cf. Buckley v. Wilson, 8 (j') Maule V.

The action is one lor foreclosure or sale, the only necessary parties to which were the plaintilf, the niortgajjee, D. the mort- gaf^or, and the person who was at the time of action bronjiht the owner of the equity of redemption. . . .

They liave so far succeeded in this that the proceedings have resulted in a judgment, by which not only I), but R. and ^I. are ordered to pay to the plaintilf the full amount of the mortgage money, interest and costs. This is mani- festly erroneous " (?>). (15) Purchasers Pendente Lite. — The general rule a]»pears to be that i)urchasers pendente lite are not necessary parties (c). In one case, where the purchasers had an adverse interest (by possession) prior to the in- terest ac(|uired pendente lite, and were added after decree, the Master in Chambers set aside the order mak- ing them i)arties " to a foregone judgment by which their rights wei-e concluded " (d). A purchaser or assignee pendente lite may, it ap- pears, bring himself forward in the suit. This had formerly to be done by tiling a supplemental bill (c) be- {h) Objection should, however, be taken at or before the trial, and not on appeal, for such side issues may by consent be tried alon^j with the chief issue ; see ib. at p. 105, per Maclennan, J.A. ; citing Marner v.

Doubtless Rule 190 (2) is sufficiently liberal to permit the adding in the Master's office of assignees pendente lite, if they consented. Trustees and Cestuis que Trustent. — Formerly, in a suit adverse to cestuis que trustent, tlie Courts would not nuike a decree in their absence, and held them to be necessary parties (//). This state of the law has been considerably modified and is now governed by Rule lOa. This is the English O. XVI. r. 7 (1875); 130 (18S3), under which rule it has been held that trustees of an equity sufficiently represent their cestuis que trustent, if no direction has been given by the Court to the con- trary (/). In one case, Jessel, M.R., said that the mort- gagees " ought u(»( to have been ordered to pa^- the costs of the cestuis que trust, and the order must be altered in that respect. And to that extent we can give the I»laintiiTs no costs of the appeal, as a punisliment to them for making the beneficiaries parties " (/). Formerly, how- ever, if a trustee had an adverse interest to his cestui* que trustent (k), or had disclaimed (/), or if it were a case of fraud (ni), the Court would order the benefi- ciaries to be made parties {ii).

Twelve months after the decease or the registration of the last caution the property vests in the " devisees or heirs beneficially entitled thereto.'' The effect of thes<» provisions would be to render the executor or administrator a necessary party durinj; the time of his dealing with the estate (./). liut in an action begun within the year, without making the personal re- presentative a party, the plaintitf was, after the lapse of a year, held entitled to judgment, no personal repre- sentative having been appointed, and no caution having been filed (//). From which we may infer (1) that an action begun within the year, and not against the per- sonal representative, will not be defeated for that omis- sion, unless a personal representative is appointed; (2) when the period for the personal representative's deal- ing with the estate has expired, the personal representa- tive is no longer a necessary party to the action (~). The same case («) contains the following statement: '*' The fact that the writ was issued during the currency of the twelve months after the intestate's death does not signify. The plaintiff brought the action at the risk of being defeated by the administrator, if one ap- pointed, filing the caution within the Act." The year of grace allowed to executors does not seem to exclude the bringing of a foreclosure suit.

In view of these provisions Boyd, C, decided: " This rule of Court was passed chietly to avoid the expense of serving many parties, but when infants interested in an estate are as a group represented by the official guardian (Con. Riule 258), it is better that he should intervene at the outset of the proceedings than at a later stage . . .

The appli- cant insists that, when the sums received in the first column far exceeded the interest and costs due, the balance should have been deducted from the principal, and that it should have (which it has not) been set down in part discharj^e of the pnncipal. As a {general rule there can be no doubt that the chief clerk is Cv»rrect in the manner in which he has taken the account." Kests When Takex ix Accolxt for Rent. — ''The ^Faster lias taken the account aj^ainst the defendants with rests; this is wrouff, for I take it to b<' the settled jtractice of the Court, up to this time at all eveuts, that where a mortjjajfi'e enters, his money bein^ in arrear, he is not liable to a«-count for the rents received by or charjjeable aj^ainst him with rests, until he is paid off in full " {(1). " I have always understood it to be the settled course of the Court not to direct an account with annual rests a}j:ainst a mortjj;a^ee in possession, unless at the time when he took possession there was no arrear of interest due to him. I conceive the princii)le to be this: a mort- tiaj^ee is not bound to receive payment of his debt by driblets, but he has the rij?ht to do so if he thinks tit. If he enters into possession when no arrear of interest is due, he evidenc«'s his intent i«)n so to receive payment «>f the debt, and the account, therefore, {joes with rests; but if the interest is in arrear when he enters into pos- session, the fact of his taking; possession affoi'ds no evi dence of his intention to receive payment by driblets, as he is driven to take the possession by the non-pay- ment of the inteiest, and the account therefore {-oes on till the whole debt has been satisfied " (r).

A general report is that which comprises the con- clusions the Master has come to upon all the subject matters referred to him bv the decree. A separate report is that which only embraces one separate object of reference, and the conclusion the Master has come to thereupon. Sjiecial reports contain special circiimstances found by the Master as a guide to the Court for some further direction or decision upon those facts. (a) Wyatt's I'rao. Uep. .377.

It was held that in workinj; out a decree for successive fore closurt' an order absolute to foreclose the person havinj;; the lirst rij^ht to redeem must be obtained before the account could be taken of subsequent interest, and costs, and a time appointed for redemption by the person ne.\t entitled to redeem {b). Modern Rule: Six Months Allowed All De- fendants. — "The established rule is that a mortjjjagor has six months, and six months only, to redeem, and un- ♦loubtedly, to my mind, it is an anomaly to say that a mortj^u>,ftjr, Ity uuy dealinjis wiih the equity of redemp- tion subseijuent to the Hrst mortjiaj^e. should be able to j^ain for himself a rijj[ht to a further time to redeem. In a complicated case, where the mortjjagor has so encuni- bi'i'ed the e(|uity of I'edemption as to j;ive rise to ques- tions of priority it is ilear, and I tak«' it to be settled after the decision in Hartlett v. .Ueesirt by Sir .John Komilly, which has often been follo\v«'d 01), that only one lime is allowed for redemption, and that is not merely as refiards iill the persons claiming to be incumbrancers, or shown to be incumbrancers on the eipiity of redemp- tion, incumbrancers therefoic of the mortgagor; but the (fl) Whitl.mul V.

In order, to my mind, for the Court jtroperly to malce such a judgment as tluit, the defendants must appear and either prove or hav«' sutlicient admission of tlieir incumbrances in order to entitle the defendants asking tor it to such a judgment as between the co-defendants. In my opinion the nu)rtgag(U' is not entitled to ask at all for such a judgment. It is the right of tlie puisne niorigagees " (/). In Tarroll v.

Langley (i), Tearson, J., said: "I will j-ive six months for redemp- tion to the defendant Langley, and one period of three months afterwards for all the other defendants. My opin- ion is in favour of lixinp^, as a general rule, one period of redemption; the practice of giviiij; successive periods has been found very inconvenient. I do not think I was wronj; in my decision in Smith v. Olding (;'), but the prt;- sent case is a very peculiar one, and, therefore, I allow the additional three months'' {k). In Sinithett v. Hesketh (/) the plaintiffs were lirst mortfijajjees, a jointress the second incumbrancer, the plaintiffs the third mortfjagees, and there were several subsecpient incumbrancers. After statinj; that " the tendency of the Court now is certainly much jjieater than it was to prevent foreclosure suits continuing for years, with successive opportunities for redemption given to the parties," North, J., made an order giving the jointress six months, and in case she did not re- deem, three months to the subsequent incumbrancers; and in case she did redeem, giving three months to the plaintiffs as third mortgagees, and a third peri«>d of three months to the subse(iuent incumbrancers. His Lord- ship disclaimed the duty of proceeding to sort out the .subsequent incumbrancers.

Ill Where the usual affidavit of the pUiintiff shown that he has beeu in occupation of the property, it must be referred bade to the Master to talie a new account, set an occupation rent, and appoint a new day for pay- ment, although the plaintiff in his affidavit swears that he was in occupation merely as caretaker, and has re- ceived no rents or profits (a). Attendance for Payment. — Rule 095 provides that "■ where the Master is directed to appoint money to be paid at some time and place he shall appoint the same to be paid into some bank," etc., etc. Under this prac- tice it would hurdly be necessary for the mortgagee to have some one in attendance at the time and place aj)- pointed. There are a number of English and Canadian cases which show the inconvenience of appointing a place other than a bank. For instance, it was connnon to appoint the " chapel of the Kolls Yard between 12 and 1 o'clock." The Courts in such cases were called upon to decide that a mortgagee who had arrived within an hour of the time (y), or had attended a portion of the appointed time {z), or had attended by agent with power o^' attorney (a), or by an agent without such authority (6), was entitled to foreclosure absolute. In cases where through mistake or some other cause the mortgagee omitted to attend at all, the proper course was to ap- point a new time and place for payment (c). Under the system of payment into a bank a new time and place might have to be appointed where the bank or agency named had been closed in the meantime (d). (jc) Ciimnu'r v. Toinlinson. 1 Cliy.

BY ACTION ON Previous Payment in Full IJars Foreclosure. — " It is decided that if a debt is secured by the mortgage of a real estate, and also by eovenaut and" by bond, the mortgagee may pursue all his remedies at the same time. If he obtains full payment on the bond or cove- nant, the mortgagor is, by the fact of payment, entitled to redeem the estate, and foreclosure is prevented or not allowed " {a). Previous Payment in Part Does Not Bar Fore- closure. — " But if the mortgagee obtains only part pay- ment on the bond or covenant he may go on with his foreclosure suit, and giving credit, in account, for that which he has recovered on the bond or covenant, he may foreclose for non-payment of the remainder " (h). Suing on Collateral for Part of Money. — Suing at law for part of the mortgage money, for which the note of a third party had been given as collateral secur- ity, was held not to open the foreclosure, such suit being brought before foreclosure completed (r). Suit on Covenant After Foreclosure Opens Same. — "On the other hand, if he obtains foreclosure first and alleges that the value of the estate is not suffi- cient to satisfy the debt, he is not absolutely precluded from suing on the bond or covenant. But it is held tliat by doing so he gives to the mortgagor a renewed (a) Lang. 355 (1S46). (h) lb., p. 356. (c) ^lills V. Chonte. 2 Chy. Chamb. 374, Tnylor, Secretary. OPENING FORECLOSURE AND STAY OF PROCEEDINGS. 113 right to redeem, or, in other words, opens the fore- closure; and, consequently, upon the commencement of an action against him on the bond after foreclosure, the mortgagor may tile a bill for redemption, and upon pay- ment of the whole debt secured by the bond, he is en- titled to have the estate back again and the securities given up, and I conceive that after foreclosure the Court w ill not restrain the mortgagee from suing on the bond, provided he retains the mortgaged estate in his own power, ready to be redeemed in case the mortgagor should think fit to avail himself of the opening of the foreclosure (d). Terms ov Redemption in Such Case. — The recoverv of a judgment against defendant after final order opens the foreclosure and lets the defendant in to redeem. In such a case the Court made an order giving time for re- deeming, that part of the order being acquiesced in; put- ting the defendant on terms to pay subsequent interest and costs, and that writ of assistance issue without further order if default made in payment at time named (e). Principles of Opening Foreclosure. — "I appre- hend that the rules as to opening the foreclosure are founded on this, that in this Cov t the mortgagor, if he does not pay the whole debt, may lose the whole estate, however valuable; but that if he does pay the whole debt he is entitled to have the estate restored to him, and it seems to follow that the mortgagee, having got the estate, is not to proceed against the mortgagor for full payment if he cannot restore the estate " (f). Where Mortgagee Cannot Restore Estate. — '* If, however, the mortgagee has sold the mortgaged pro- (d) Lockhart v. Hardy, 9 Benv. at p. 35G (184G). (e) Mills V. Choate, 2 Cliy.

Mil perty. a Court of Equity will interfere to restrain in ac- tion on the covenant " (g). Thus, in Perry v. Barker (h), the estate having been sold some years before by the mortgagee, and the de- ficiency being small, the Court said: *' If there was any probability that this mortgagee could get the estate back again he ought to have a time limited for that puri)ose; then he ought to tender a conveyance, and the mortga- gor should have a given time to redeem; but under the circumstances of this case, the mortgagee's demand being so inconsiderable the proper decree is an injunc- tion." Where Mortgagee Can, But Won't Restore Estate. — " I incline to think that the mortgagor is not entirely helpless. I should think that if prepared to pay off the mortgage debt after final order, he might notify the mortgagee of the fact, and desire to be informed whether it would be received, and that there- by the mortgagep would be put to his election. If he consented to receive it, there would be redemption. If he refused a Court of Equity, I should say, would find no difficulty in restraining him from afterwards suing for the mortgage debt"(t). Costs of Opened Foreclosure. — Where a mort- gagee, having foreclosed and sold, wished to prove in an administration suit, he was forced to rescind the sale, and prove only for his principal and interest, the costs of the foreclosure suit being disallowed (y).

The receipt of rents will not permit a mortgagee to make an aftidavit " that the said sum still remains due and unsatisfied." Receipt of Rents After Default But Before Final Order. — In Constable v.

Rece'.'T of Rents Where Successive Periods of Redemption. — Where successive periods of redemption had been fixed, and the mortgagees had received rents before the expiration of the time allowed the mortgagor, but after the time for redemption allowed the puisne mortgagee (though before a final order was obtained against him), Kay, J., said: "I think it was irregular to fix a further day for redemption by the mortgagor until the puisne mortgagee had been finally foreclosed, but I have no difficulty in holding that the receipt of moneys for rent by the plaintitt's after tlie time fixed for redem[»- tion by the puisne mortgagee, and before final judgment I 4 m (fc) Buchauan v.

Rents Taken in by Keceiver. — There is a general rule tliat in ordinary cases where a receiver receives rents, between the date of the certiticate or report and the day fixed for redemption, those rents should be taken into account and a further period of a month should be al- lowed for redemption (o). This rule may, by being ex- tended, become a serious inconvenience to a mortga- gee. Thus, it was argued in Hoare v. Stephens (/;). in which TurLLU'-Fust v. Needham was not followed, "that the result of such a decision will be that the plaintiff in a foreclosure suit can never get a final order of fore- closure at all, for he will find himself obliged to render perpetual accounts; he cannot stop the receiver from receiving, and the defendant may object to his being discharged." How TO Avoid Further Accounting. — Where there was a special proviso inserted into an order for fore- closure " that any person redeeming, or in the event of toreclosure the plaintiftls should be at liberty to api \y in Chambers for the payment or transfer to them of the money which might be in Court or in the hands of the receiver," default being made by the person entitled to redeem, the Court made an order for foreclosure abso- ^ute and for payment of the money to the mortgagees (7).

Stay on Motion by Plaintiff Himself. — In Brooks- bank V. Higginbottom, Bent v. Buckley {x), a decree was made in a suit for the administration of a mort- gagor's estate. The mortgagee afterwards filed a fore- closure bill, but subsequently obtained full payment in the administration suit. Held, that he was entitled to stay proceedings in his own suit and to have the costs of it. D.— ENLARGING TIME FOR PAYMENT. Motions to Enlarge. — Applications for extending the time for payment may be made in Chambers (y). The time was extended in the following cases: Where the Mortgagee was at Fault. — In a case of mortgage for purchase money, where the existence of a first mortgage ^which the mortgagee-vendor had cove- nanted to pay off) prevented the mortgagor-purchaser from raising a loan to pay the balance secured (2). Similarly where an improper advertisement by the mortgagee's solicitors prevented the mortgagor selling to raise the money, the time was enlarged six months, and costs were refused the mortgagee (a). Where Good Prospects of Being Able to Pay. — Where the defendant showed that he had sold for £300 and the mortgage debt was only £250, and that he ex- pected to receive payment in full in a few months, the (x) 31 Bonv. 25 (lSr>2>.

The Court refused to nuiko a decree other than would have been proper had the true position of the parties to that suit been stated (//), What is Foreclosure Absolute? — In foreclosure proceedings " the Court made various orders — interim orders fixing a time for payment of the money — and at last there canu* the final order which was called fore- closure absolute, that is, in form, that the mortgaj-or should not be allowed to redeem at all; but it was f(Miu only, just as the original deed was form only; for the Courts of Equity so.n decided that, notwithstanding the form of that order, they would after tiiat order allow the mortg.i^or to redeem. That is although the order of foreclosure absolute appeared to be a final order of the Court, it was not so, but the mortgagee still renuiined liable to be treated as mcsrtgagee, and the mortgagor still retained a claim to be treated as mortgagor, sub- ject to the discretion of the Court. Therefore, every- body who took an order for foreclosure absolute knew that there was still a discretion in the Court to allow the mortgagor to redeem " (h). \i /'] !i| ((■) Rioo V. Broolis. 1 Chy.

I 1 122 FOUECLOSURE OF MOUT(JiAGES. \\ "As is said in Thornhill v. ^Fanniufv, the relations of mortgagoi" and mortgagee in this Court are anoma- lous. This Court loolcs at the estate from first to last as only a pledge for the debt. The mere fact of an order absolute for foreclosure being obtained does not necessarily prevent the Court from rescuing the estate from the mortgagee. Indeed the order absolute amounts to little more than an authority by the Court to the mortgagee to deal with the property as his own. When he in any way as such owner alters his relation to it, he adopts it as his own and foregoes his debt, and neither he nor the mortgagor afterwards can treat it as a niere pledge for the debt, and insist that the latter is subsisting. Until this is done the niprtgagee is in no way bound to take the property for his debt, notwith- standing the order for foreclosure, lie may treat this as a nullity and sue at law for his mortgage money (i). Can he, therefore, insist that it is final as against the mortgagor, when there has been no change otherwise in their relations, no change in the property or the use of it? It is a matter of discretion to grant indulgence to a mortgagor '' (j). The rule in Ontario as to re-oi)ening after final order is necessarily less elastic, and less lenient to the mortgagor than in England. The circumstances of this Province, and our way of dealing with lands make it important that the final order should have some finality, so as to encourage the improvement of land which has been foreclosed (A).

The fact of the whole or the greater part of the pro- perty being still in the possession of the mortgagor ip). The fact that the estate in question was an estate in reversion not in possession (q).

Some of the grounds upon which a purchaser may defend his purchase against redemption are: That the decree and final order are upon the face of them regular (/). " If a purchaser at a sale by the Court ' has a right to presume that the Court has taken the steps necessary to investigate the rights of the parties, and that it has on that investigation properly decreed a sale,' it does^ appear to me upon principle that a purchaser from a party, in whose favor the Court has decreed final fore- closure, has the like right to presume that the Court has taken the like steps, and has, upon investigalion, properly decreed final foreclosure.

The plaintiff being owner of land, after having mortgaged it, emigrated to Austra- lia, and subsequently remitted money to his agents here to pay ofif the incumbrance; but, they applied the money to their own use. Subsequently the assignee of the mortgage proceeded to foreclose, in which suit an ans- wer was put in on behalf of the i)laintiff, but without his knowledge or consent, admitting the allegations of the bill, and that the full amount of principal and interest was due. AVhercupon a final order of foreclosure was in due course, obtained; and the plaintiff in that suit conveyed to defendant A. for f 1,002, the value of the property; and on the same dav defendants M. and S., as attornevs to the plaintiff, conveyed the premises to A., who was ignorant of any fraud in the matter. The plaintiff hav- ing returned to this country, and ascertained the frauds which had been practised upon him, filed a bill against his agents and the purchaser A. Held, that the plaintiff, so far as the purchaser was concerned, was bound by his answer, and was not entitled to relief as against him; tliat the fact of the purchaser having heard before his ])urchase that the plaintiff had remitted money to pay the mortgage was not sufficient to charge him with notice that the foreclosure was wrongful; but, in view of the fraudulent conduct of the attorneys, the Court (fir) Spraggc, V.C, in Giinn v.

It is possible that a sale to a bona fide purchaser, after foreclosure, may be upheld as an exercise of the power of sale in the mortgage, although the foreclosure itself is improperly obtained and Avoidable {k). When the purchaser bought before final order, the foreclosure was opened, the purchaser being taken as knowing the circumstances of the case (1). When a purchaser took relying on an order " sub- ject to General Orders 114, 115, 116, the foreclosure was re-opened on payment of principal, interest and the costs of the mortgagees and purchaser, together with the costs incurred by the purchaser in connection with his pur- chase of the property (;»). Where the decree gave the mortgagor six months to pay, while the Master only gave him six weeks, held, "this was an irregularity, which between the parties might have been waived, but, which was sutHcient to notify the purchaser of something unusual in the pro- ceedings, and that he could not rely on the final order alone " (n).

In Wolverhampton and Staffordshire Banking Co. V. George (r), a judgment for an immediate foreclosure absolute was granted against an infant, the plaintiff offering to pay the defendant's costs, and the defendant's counsel not asking liberty to redeem; the Court being first satisfied that the security was insufficient. When an infant stands solely as a trustee he is not entitled to have the six months after coming of age to sihow cause (s).

Thus where the defendant entered an appearance under O. J. A. Rule G8 (Con.

It does not follow, however, that the relief askedi will always be granted, for there are some cases where foreclosure, not sale, is the appro- priate remedy, and other cases where sale will be ordered, but not foreclosure. Cases where sale refused: — I. Where Land is Out of Jurisdiction. — Where the mortgaged premises lay in Manitoba, Boyd, C, said: *' The mortgagor can be foreclosed because such a decree acts upon tlie person, and not upon the land directly!//). But any extension of this doctnne, such as putting the machhiery of the Court in motion to effect a sale of land in another province, would be a mischievous novelty'' ()). II.

Sale Not Granted in Absence of Interested Parties. — Where the bill prayed a foreclosure, and some of the parties interested were not before the Court, the Court refused to decree a sale (»)• A bill of foreclosure having taken " pro confesso *' iigaiiist some of the defendants under the general orders of the Court, was not considered a reason for decreeing a sale as against those defendants (o). Cases where foreclosure refused: — I. Against the Crown. — Foreclosure will not be allowed as against the Crown, but a sale may be decreed with the consent of the Crown (/>), but not without it the legal estate is in the Crown (r/). The Court may order a sale, but has no jurisdiction to direct the Crown to convey (r). " If a decree were made for sale, the in- terest of the Crown might thus be wholly vested in the purchaser, but if foreclosure be asked the Court can, on default, only order that the plaintiff be at liberty to enter into possesssion of the mortgaged i)remises, and hold and enjoy the same, and receive the rents and profits thereof until the Crown think proper to re- deem (.S').

II. rLKDGK OF Chattels, — In Carter v. Wake (u) A. deposited with U. certain Canada railway bonds as security for a debt. On a bill filed for foreclosure or sale it was held that It. was entitled to an order for sale only. On the other hand, a mortgagee of chattels is en- titled to a foreclosure, and where a party held a mort- gage on chattel property and also mortgages on real pro- perty, the Court refused to make a decree for sale of the chattels, and of foreclosure as to the realty (r). III. Trust for Sale. — Where tiie mortgage is in the form of a trust for sale, sale and not foreclosure is the proper remedy (7). Cases where neither sale nor foreclosure allowed: — I. Mortgagee of Kailwav. — A mortgagee (or judg- ment creditor) of a railway company cannot ust' the remedies of sale or foreclosure to enfoi'ce his demand.

Speedy Foreclosure. — ^TA'here a. sale had proved abortive the Court ordered the defendant to pay the amount within' a month, or in default foreclosure ((/). And where the bill asked either sale or foreclosure a decree was drawn up directing sale, and if that should prove abortive then foreclosure (/>). This speedy fore- closure, after the preliminary of an abortive auction, can be obtained on notice of motion to the mortgagor (c). In Girdh'stone v. tlunn(r/) the motion was heard in Chambers; the order was made absolute as against a defendant consenting and allowing three months to the other defendant. It is possible the present I'ule allow- ing one month where time is extended would be ap[)lied to this ease (<). 379.

Ordinarily, however, it will be the Court giving judg- ment on the action that will order the sale. The report of the blaster certifying that an immediate sale would be beneficial is not in itself sufficient (/>). 380. Whore a request for a sale is made by a subsequent incumbrancer, or by the mortgagor, or by any person claiming under them respectively, the party making the request is to deposit in Court the sum of $80 for the purpose of covering ex- penses unless otherwise ordered by the Court or a Judge.

Con. Rule 127. Chy. O. 445. Changes in Wording. — Tlie words after discharge have been re-arranged: the}- read " to discharge the order making him a party, or to add, to vary, or set aside the judgment." I'RioRiTV Lost by not Moving Against Order. — In McDougall v. Lindsay Paper Mill Co. (z), the Master considered that the [daintiff's moitgage, though prior in date to Ihe executions in the sheritl's hands, was defec- tive in not being ralitied by the sliareholders, the mort- gaging company. " As a s[>ecial circumstance, he reports that tliese creditors, ln'ing all subsequent to the making of the jdaintiff's mortgage, were made parties as subse- quent incumbrancers, but that from the evidence before him it appears that they were entitled to i)riority over the plaint itT. The Master has virtually abrogated the judgment, which i)roceeds upon an adjudication that the plaintiffs are mortgagees of the eoujpauy, having a lien upon their land, and a right to realize the same by a sale of the mortgaged ])remises. And to this adjudication all the siibsequent incumbrancers who are made parties in the blaster's office assent, because they take no steps to move against, vary, or set aside the judgment, they were therefore bound by it in the same wa}' as if they had been made parties originally, had nmde default in setting up any defence, and had sulTered judgment to be recovered in favour of the plaintiff " (f/)- (i/) S (Jr. .'MO (1S(50). {:) 10 r.

Earl of Chesterfield (n), and cited in our Canadian case of Hall V. Park(o), are: First. That in suits for foreclosure or redemption of mortgages, when a defendant disclaims in such a man- ner as to show that he never had and never claimed an interest at or before the tiling of the bill, then he is en- titled to his costs. Secondly. If a defendant having an interest shows that he disclaimed, or offered to disclaim before the in- stitution otf the suit, tlu^n also he is entitled to his costs. T'hirdlv. That when a defendant having an interest allows himself to be mad(? a party to the suit, and does not disclaim or otter to disclaim till he puts in his an- swer or disclaimer, in that case he is not entitled to his costs. To this Hall v. Park, supra, adds: "Put had thi? English rule been dllTerent, the defendants could not have had the costs in this Court, because here inaction is equivalent to disclaimer. A defendant who does not appear in cases of this sort is ther«>by foreclosed. Now, that being the settled i)ractice, it is clear, 1 think, that a defendant who adopts the useless and i pensive course of filing a disclaimer must bear his own costs." Unless the Court, etc. — It is a principle that a l>arty who has had ample opportunity of coming in to prove, and has neglected to d«» so, must take the conse quence of his laches, and will not be allowed to disturb the position of the other creditors (/>).

At that time the debt was not transferable, 8o that a power of attorney wan neces- sary; therefore the old decisions were rijjht, in hiyin); down thut a mortgajfee was not to be re(jnired to run the risk of b(>inf; made liable to costs, which he mi^ht be, if he transferred the debt to a third person. Now the dittlculty has been ^ot rid of, bv making tiie debt transfi'rable at law, so that no power of attorney is n'- quired, and all ^I'ound of objection on tlie jiait of the mortjiajjee to transfer the security is taken away. It can do him no harm in any way. "Then, what are the words of the l.Tth section of the Act of ISSl? It says, 'where a mortfiaj^or is en- titled to redeem.' Every mort^a{j;or is entitled to re- deem, but there is a ditfereuce in their rijjhts. Where there is one mortj;a}j;or and one mortjia^Cf, tlicre, of course, his ri^ht to redeem is absolute. IJut where there are several suc<'essive mortpajjes, the mortj^af^or can redi-em the next to him witliout redeennn}; any other; but, if he wishes to redeem any anterior mort};ajj;e, he must also redeem all who are between that mortj^ajiee and himself. ... So that the words ' where a mort- gagor is entitled to redeem ' really includes every mort- gagor, except a mortgagor who is precluded by some special term in his mortgage-deed from redeeming with- in a specific time. "Then it says, 'he shall have power to reipiirc the mortgagee instead of re-conveying,' etc. . . . It is only " instead of re-conveying.' The section assjimes two things: First, that the moitgagee is bound to re convey to the person applying to him; and sccoiully, that tlie transfer is to be instead of a re-conveyance. Then see how it works. AVlu're therc^ are first and second mortgagees, and the first mortgagfe has notice of tlie second, when he is paid oft' he becomes a trustee of the legal estate for him. The word 're-convey' is tlu? pro- per word to use; it is strictly a re-conveyance.

It appears, therefore, that any transfer he might propose m-.ist be a transfer corresponding with the deed." In Smithett v. Heskith, under the present section (as amended by the Imperial Act of 1882), the convey- ance and assignment were ordered to be made to trus- tees to preserve the rights of certain incumbrancers (q). Our Canadian case of Gooderliam v. The Traders' Bank (/•) contains some valuable matter on the subject of this section: (1) As TO What Covenants May Be Required in THE Assignment. — " So far as the form of conveyancing under this Act is concerned, nothing more can. in my o[>inion, be insisted on, than the covenant vaich is usual from trustees, viz.: that against incumbrances. The other covenant as to what is secured by the mort- gage is at best of little use. If more is exacted by the mortgagee on redemption than is due, as between him and the mortgagor, there is the right to recover this without a covenant, and the covenant establishes nothing against the mortgagor, who is not a party to the transfer." (2) As TO THE Form of the Conv^eyance. — "The form of the conveyance depends upon the circumstances. In a case where the money was paid by one who had not the whole equity of redemption. Lord Hatherly said it should be drawn in such a manner as that there should be very little difficulty upon the subject afterwards, and there should be expressed on the face of the conveyance a statement of some kind with reference to the exact position of the parties, showing that the person so re- deeming, having only a partial interest, is to hold, sub- ject to the rights of redemption of all the parties wlio (q) 44 Vh.

In proper technical shape ^he instrument should be framed so as to assign tlie mortgage debt and interest and the full benefit of the securities, collateral and otherwise, held for the same, and then to convey the estate subject to such right and equity of redemption as subsists in the premises by virtue of the mortgage transferred " (s).

The Collateral Securities. — "It is of moment to provide for the securities, and refer to them specifi- cally in a schedule, or otherwise, because they might be separated from the mortgage itself, and so give rise to great complications: Morley v. Morley, 25 lieav. 25:^; Walker v. Jones, L. R. 1 P. C. 50. . . . The securi- ties, when delivered or endorsed, would have to be held by the person redeeming on precisely the same terms as they Avere held by the bank." (4) To Whom Transfer to Be Made. — " I deem it of no importance that this transfer is drawn to the sub- sequent mortgagee himself, and not to a third person as expressed in the Act. The transferee is to be a nomi- nee of the person redeeming, and, if he chooses to have the transfer to himself the n. jrtgagee cannot object.''

Mortgagee in Possession, — As our Ontario Legis- lature Las omitted the definition of "mortgagee in pos- session" : qutere, what does that expression mean? Where a luortfraoee is in possession he may be com- pelled to re-conve}', but not to assign to third persons (u). :t. (!) A mortgagor, as long as his right to redeem subsists,, shall, by virtue of this Act, be entitled from time to time, at reasonable times, on his request, and at his own cost, and on payment of the mortgagee's costs and expenses in this behalf, to inspect and make copies or abstracts of, or extracts from, the documents of title relating to the mortgaged property in the custody or power of the mortgagee. (2) This section applies only to mortgages made after the 1st day of July, 1886, and shall have effect notwithstanding any stipulation to the contrary. R. S. O. 1887, c. 102, s. 3. 49 V. c. 20, s. 8. Eight of Mortgagor to Inspect Deeds. — The former rule on the subject-matter of this section, ar the extent of that rule are well expressed in Patch v. Ward (v): " There can be no doubt of the wisdom of the rule that a mortgagee or purchaser is not bound to pro- duce his title deeds and may resist the production of all deeds which are muniments of title. " lUit this rule does not extend to the mortgage deed itself, as to which different considerations prevail. It is the mortgage deed which conveys the property by way of pledge, and which contains the proviso for re- demption by virtue of which the mortgagor is entitled to redeem the property. The mortgage deed, therefore, is as much the evidence of the mortgagor's title to re- deem as it is of the mortgagee's estate " (w). In an English case, however, where the plaintiff was a director of the mortgagor-company, it was held that the present section (.r) did not give him, through that 00 Stark v. Roid, 2G O.

The Hamilton Provident and Loan Societ3'(2). " The origin of the section appears to be the Im- perial ' Conveyancing and Law of Property Act, 1881,' s. 23, s.-ss. (3), (4). There is this dilTerence in the lan- gujige of our Act, which I t^.iink should make no dif- ference in the construction; the former reads: 'All moneys received on an insurance effected under the mortgage deed or under this Act' ; while our Act is, ' All money payable under an insurance to a mortgagor.' The clause in the English Act is found in connection with many special provisions as to the mortgagee's power to 'insure, which are not in our Act, and which were substituted for those of Lord Cranworth's Act (18(50), 23-24 V. c. 145.

" It gives the mortgagee the right, where an insur- iince is effected by the mortgagor, even where there is no covenant on his part to insure or a covenant to in- sure niei'ely but not to assign the policy, to require the money to be ajtplied by him in making good the loss or damage (b). " Sub-section 2 confei's on the mortgagee a new right, namely, the right to recpiire that all moneys re- ceived on an insurance (possibly only an insurance effected under the mortgage) shall be applic^d in or to wards the discharge of the money due under the mort- gage. '' The salvo in this sub-section, * without prejudice to any obligation to the contrary* imposed by law,' seems to have lost its significance, now that the Metropolitan Building Act is ' not to be deemed to be in fo"ce with regard to property in this I'rovince ': The Insurance Act, K. S. O. (1887), c. 107 s. 155 (50 V. c. 2G, s. 154). An obligation imiwsed by special contract means, I think, a special contract in relation to the insurance." Rights of Mortgagee to Insurance Moneys. — From the above case of Edmonds v. Hamilton Provident, we may conclude that the mortgagee has three principal rights with regard to the insurance moneys. 1st. He may require the insurance moneys to be applied towards reinstating the property injured. 2nd. He may require the insurance moneys to be :ipplied towards the discharge of moneys due under the mortgage. (a) Cf. Ex parte Gorcly, 4 D. J. & S, 477 (18C4). {h) Loes V. Whitoley, L.

The insurance moneys lield as collateral should be invested, and tlie mortgagee is acconntable for the profits (/■). It is left doubtful whether, in case tlie mortgagee elects to apply a portion of the insurance money to the overdne moneys, he would be under any obligation to apply the balance upon any instalment thereafter falling due {[/). It seems, however, that, while the mort- gagee is not compelled to apply the moneys to the pay- ment of the principal and interest as they accrue, neither, on the other hand, has he the right to apply the moneys to principal and interest not yet due (//).

[See also c. 129, s. 9.] Effect of Section 13. — Section 13 has had a cer- tain elfect on the law as existing in England, but it is not so easy to see what effect it has had on the law in Ontario, which already was greatly in advance of the English law. It is our duty, however, to try and explain the state in which the law has been left, after the intro- duction of the present section into our statutes, which introduction was effected by the wholesale adoption of clauses from the Imperial Conveyancing Act of 1881 k), with little or no regard to what the Ontario Statutes already declared. To begin with, there are well known in law two ordinary ways in which more than one person may hold property together, nameh-, as tenants in common and as joint tenants. Now the estate of joint tenancy is chietly distinguished from the other estate by its characteristic of survivorship. This peculiarity of survivorship has the advantage of simplifying the transfer of jtroperty, but is considered inequitable as between beneficial owners. With Regard to Purchases, Etc.- Our Legislature has, except in the case of trustees, considered the estate ((') See I'^isher on Mortgage, 5th Ed., s, 1513, for discussion of English Law. n.K. >t. — It ^ll* f 220 F(M«ECLOSUUE OF MOUTOAGES. Li :! of joint tciijincy as a tliiiij^ not to bo favoured. Accord- ingly wc havii a section as follows: — " Where by any letters patent, assurance or will, made and executed after the first day of July, 1894, land has been or is granted, conveyed or devised, to two or more persons, other than executors or trustees. In fee simple or for any less estate, it shall be considered that such persons took or take as tenants in common, and not as ^olnt tenants, unless an Intention sufficiently appears on the face of such letters patent, assurance or will, that they are to take as joint tenants." ((/). With Kegaru to Mortgages. — Whether or not a mortgaj^e would be included in the word assurance in the precediufv section, there is no doubt tliat in equity the Courts in construing mortgages leaned to tenancies in common. Thus in Morely v. Bird (e) we find the ^Mas- ter of the Kolls saying: '' So if two people join in lending money upon a njortgage, ecjuity says it could not be the intention that the interest in that should survive. Though they take a joint security eticli means to lend his own and take back his own. But that was never extended to grants." Now this e(iuitablc doctrine renders it very incon- venient to a mortgagor to take a loan from more than one lender; as in the case of the detith of either he is put to the trotible of finding out the representatives of the deceased to pay them as well as the survivor, instead of merely having to deal with the survivor alone. This has been remedied in Ontario in a very exten- sive manner, as we learn from Dilke v. Dotiglas (/): "We have already quoted the terms of section 9 of chapter 90, C. S. U. C. (12 V. c. 71, s 10) {(j), upon which the appel- lants mainly rely. It will be remembered that it makes the bona fide payment to, and receipt by, the survivor of several mortgagees, or the executors or administrators ((/) R. S. O. 1807, c. 119, s. 11.

This clause was borrowed from a corresponding one in the Imperial Act. 7 & ^ V. c. 7(>, which, however, was repealed by S & !) V. c. 1(K», and it was after this repeal that the mortgage under adjudication in Matson v. Den- nis, 10 Jur. N. S. 4(11, was made. This rejteal was no doubt dui' to the consideiations ]>ointed out by Mr. Itel- lenden Ker, in his well known lettei- to ti." Lord Chan- cellor. In his opinion the real inconvevience to be remedied arose in the case of the death of one of the several trustees who had lent money ujton a mortgage. We may «inot<' the {tassage from the letter which con- tains his comments upon tlie provisions witii wliich we are now concerned: "It was to remove this inconveni- ence that the clause in «iueslion was framed; but it goes far beyond the evil in (juestion, by maldng tlie r('cei])t!4 of the survivor of all mortgagees wlu» are at law joint tenants suthcient. Now in practice many persons not trustees, etc., talvc securities in joint tenancy; and it would seem very inexpedient thus to repeal generally the salutary (Mpiitable rule as regards these sec\irities, and to allow the survivor to jtossess liimself of the whole funds without the concui-rence of the rejiicsentatives of the other equitable tenant in common.' The j)rompt repeal of the section ]»roves that this view of its inex- pediency jirevailed witli Parliament. Hut our Legisla- ture must have thouglit tliat different considerations were applicable to the circumstances of this country, for the clause was enacted here four years after its re- peal in England. We ni»prehend that thei-e is no doubt that the construction which ^Ir. Kellenden Ker indicates is the correct one. The surviving mortgagee could already have given a receipt valid in a Court of law; the statute freed the person paying from any equitable obligation to see to the application of the money. Thus the survivor became, as far as the jterson paying was concerned, the person entitled, both at law '\v w w 228 FOUECLOSUUE OF M<)KT(JAUE.S. iii: and in ('(jiiitv, \o ifccivc the inoiu'.v and to j;iv<' an cfTcc- tnal discliar^c from Ihc d('l>f.

The wliole tenor of the statntory reguhition exclndes the supjMisition that the survivor was authorized to receive the money and discharge tlie debt witliout being empowered to recon- vey the legal estate.'' CiiANCK Effectkd hy Sfxtion 1.'?. — Now what does the i)resent section 1'? add to this state of the law? A good deal of the i)hraseology of that section is explained by reference to a very common clause inserted by Eng- lish conveyancers in mortgages to trustees, somewluit as follows: " Witnesseth that in consideration of the sum of now paid to the said mortgagor by the said mortgagees (out of money belonging to them on a joint account), the receipt whereof is her<-by ac- knowledged, etc." This form of clause is an expedient by which trustees (1) obtain the advantage of survivor- ship, and (2) do not disclose the trust (/), which dis- closure would, in equity, render the mortgagor liable to see to the api)lication of his payments. lioth the sutticiency of the recei[)t of the survivor and the non-liability to see to the application of pay- ments have been secured to the mortgagor in England by the Conveyancing Act of 1881 (y), sections 30 and (51; ih) His l^ordship nioiint the 00th section of 31 V, c, 20; It.

To answer this (piestion, let ns ajjain refer to the jndjiinent in Dillie v, l)ouj,'las (/): — " Hnt the statute (m), in terms only refers to the bona fide payment of money. It does not expi-essly extend its jjrolection to a niort- ^aj^or who, instead of actually jiayinj; the debt, chooses to enter into scnne dill'erenl ari'anj;le secuiity, it is e(|uivalent to payment, but we do not feel at liberty to jdace such an t'xtended construction upon tile statute. Its natural and obvious ini|)ort is that the relaxation of the doctrine of e«iuity shall be c(mllned to cases of actual j)ayment of money, and thei-e is nothing; either in the words or the spirit of the Icf^islation which would warrant us in j^ivinji; tlie same < tiect to the accept- ance of another security as to a i-eceipt of money." Now the last clause in section \'.i, siib-section (1), certainly is more liberal than section 14 as interpreted alio',-e. for it makes the receipt in writin«j; of the survivor a complete discharjie. t^o that in this ri'spect some- thinji has been added by the inti'oducti(ui of section i:?.

Thus, in Ke Jackson, Smith v. Sibthoi'jx' (7I. the Court, notwithstandiufj the evidence that the etfect of the joint account clause was exi)lained to the mortua- gees, held that they were tenants in common. As it was very cleverly put in the argument in this latter case: "The joint account clause is mere conveyancing machinery, its ol)ject being only to facilitate the dealing with the pro|)erty, and though a purchaser nmy not be entitled to go behind it, it is not conclusively binding on the persons interested in the money." 15.

If the distress was for interest simplieiter under the terms of the mort- gage, the clause authorizing the distress would amount to a license only, and would not warrant the seizure of the goods of a stranger. That was always the law. al- though there was at one time some difference of opinion on the siibject, and I think that the clause to be found in the Act respecting Mortgages, K. S. O.

Attorxmext (.'lause. — An attornment clause may be of either of two kinds: (1) It may be a mere sham, a mere contrivance and device to give the mortgagee an additional benetit in the event of the mortgagor's bank- ruptcy (r), or (2) it may be a bona tide contract for the creation of the relation of landlord and tenant between the mortgagee and mortgagor {w). This distinction has been fully discussed in our Supreme ('ourt in Ilobbs v. Ontario Loan and Deben- ture Company (.r). " The reality of the tenancy between n)ot'tgagor and the defendant company depends in the tirst plac<' on the sulliciency of the lease as a matter of conveyancing, and in the next place on the bona tides of the transaction. '' The latter point has usually been tested in Eng- land in the light of the bankruptcy law.

Some of the ordinary incidents of the relation of landlord and tenant are fitted to produce injustice, and the person affected by them must have the rijjht to question the reality of the relationship. A notable example is the rij;ht to dis- train the }j;oods of a stranp;er, which still exists in On- tario thouj,^h modified by statute, K. S. O. 1887, c. 102, ss. K), 17. " Kearsley v. I'hillips (//) is an instance of the exer- cise of (hat ri}iht under the attornment clause in a mort- p;aj?e, and in the case Ke Willis {z), one of the Lord Jus- tices refers to that power as a reason why an attorn- n»eiit is more beneficial to a mortj>agee than a mere power to enter and distrain {a). '' It cannot be deni<'d that a mortjjagor competent to contiact will be bound by whatever barj-ain he volun- tarily nuikes with his mort}i;aj;ee, and in attorniu}' ten- ant to him, may if he jdease, a};;ree to pay him rent at a hifihcr rate than a stran}:;er would be likely to fiive for the premises, but when the (piestion is whether there is an honest intention to create the rtlationsliij) of land- l(trd and tenant or whether a tenancy is absolutely cre- ated in order to cover some other purpose, we can pro- perly, and without interfering- with the freedom of con- tract, consider the terms of the lease as a part of the evidence bearing on the fact of intention." Section IG is evidently intended to apply to the case where a bona fide relation of landlord and tenant has been created by the nu)rtgage. This we may infei* fi'oni the third sub-section, which recjuires ilie same imblic notice of sale by a mortgagee as by a landlord; and from the close similarity of section 1(5 to section 42 of the Imperial Itankruptcy Act, IS.s:?, by which it seems to have been suggested (//).

CiiAxcK Effkctki) i!V Skction 17. — The law pre- viously to the 1st July, 1888, may be stated as follows: — A inoi'tfjcaf^ee, whose money was not paid on the day appointed by the mortsaye was entitled to six calendar months' notice previously to beinj^ paid (ni). This was a practice resting upon custom; and the custom is founded on this, namel^y, that it is but fair that the party who has lent his money upon the security, should have a reasonable opportunity, before the transaction is put an end to, of linding some other security on which he may lay out his money when it has been repaid to him()i). It afterwards became the practice to treat six months' in- to'est in advance as ecjuivalent to six months' notice. WiiKX ^Mortgagee Not Entitled to Notice. — It seems that when the mort}j;agee gives notice demanding payment, or takes proceedings for the recovery of the money (which is equivalent to a demand) previous notice was (and is) not requisite (o).

The consent of the mortgagee, during an adminis- tration suit, to a sale amounted to acceptance by him of notice to pay otf, and he was not entitled to six months' interest in lieu of notice, but only interest for the period which intervened between the actual pay- ment off and the expiration of the six mouths from the time of such consent being given (q). The effect of the present enactment is of course to dispense with the notice, or interest in lieu of notice, hitherto required when default Wiis made in Uie pay- ment of the i)rincipal as it fell due. First Proviso. — The effect of this proviso is to allow any express agreement by the parties on the sub- ject of notice to be binding. Doubtless, unless the ex- press agreement disclosed a contrary intention, the former rule would apply, that when the mortgagor soiight to pay, some notice, and when the mortgagee called in the money, no notice would be required. Second Proviso. — The sense of this proviso is not so plain as could be desired; but the evident intention is to deal with what are called acceleration clauses. TImis there is generally a clause in a mortgage such as " Provided in default of payment of the interest hereby secured, the principal hereby secured shall become pay- able" (/). Properly this clause is enforceable only at the option of the mortgagee {s); but to remove any mis- apprehension the Legislature has inserted the second proviso, the effect of which is as follows: — (1) When an instalment of principal has fallen due, the mortgagor may, after default, without notice, etc., pay that instalment (not the whole principal).

Part II. of this Act represents Tart II. of Lord Cranwortlfs Act (/), which part lias been repealed in England by the Conveyancing Act, llSlSl (u), and its place supplied by sections 10 et seq. of the last mentioned enactment. Even after such repeal in England it has been held that in the case of a mortgage executed before ISSl, the powers under Lord Cranworth's Act can be exercised since 1881 (c). As we have elsewhere more fully discussed the sub- ject of I'ower of Sale in a work specially devoted to that branch of law (/r), we may refer the reader to said work for further information besides what properly can be inserted under the succeeding sections of this Act. 18.

A power to sell, or concur with any other person in selling the whoh' or any part of the property by public auction or private contnict, subject to any reasonable conditions he may think fit to mnke, .and to rescind or vary contracts for sale, or buy in and re-sell the property, from time to time, in like manner. 2nd. A power to insure, and keep insured, from loss or dam;ige by fire, the whole or any part of the property (whether affixed to the freehold or not) which is in its nature insurable, and to add the premiums paid for such insurance to the principal money secured at the same rate of interest.

There arc two powers contained in tlie i)resent section, wliich are en- tirely distinct and wliidi we may deal with separately in this order: 1st, the power of sale; 2nd, tlie power to insnre. 1. FowER OF Sale. — The period of defanlt after which salt? may be had under this Act has been nnder- ^oinjj: a jiiadiml diminution. Thus Lord ('ranworth's Act, section 11, reads, *' at any time after the exi»iration of one year froiii tlie time when such princijial money shall have become payable"; 42 Vict. c. 20 (Ont.), s. 1, replaced one year by six months; still later, The Mort- gage Amendment Act, 1888 (.?), has replaced six montlis by four months. The period for arrears of interest is still six months as in Lord Cranworth's Act. 2. The Power to Insure. — This power is to come into force " after any omission to pay any premium on any insurance which by the terms of the deed ought ta (a) 51 Vict. c. 15 (Ont.) s. 3. m i' 240 FORECLOSUIIE OF MOUTGAOES. % i I' • be paid bv tlio jxTson entitUHl to the i)roi)erty subject to the chai'tje." Hut in ()utj.'''o the usual insurance clause in accordance with which such premium " o\ijj;ht to be paid " is based on clause 12 in the schedule to the Short Forms of Mortpi^es Act(//); and as the latter part of that clause vests a fuller power in the mort}j;a}?ee to insure than that conferred by this section; and as a<- cordins: to section 28 of this Act such a power already existing in the deed precludes the operation of the l)0\ver conferred by the present section, the result is that the power to insure under the present section is a matter ol" very little consequence or value. 19. Reci'lpts for purchase money given by the person or persons exercising the power of sale by the preceding section conferred, shiill be sufficient discharges to the purchaser, who shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money. R. S. O. 1887, c. 102, s. 19 ; 42 V. c. 20. s. 2. Compare this section with section 14 preceding" ; and see notes thereunder. 20. (1) No sale as aforesaid shall be made until after two months' notice in writing has been given to any subsequent in- cumbrancer, and to the person entitled to the property subject to the charge and to such incumbrance, the notice to be given either personally or at his usual or last place of residence in this Province, which notice may be given at any time after any de- fault in making a payment provided for by the deed. R. S. O. 1887, c. 102, s. 20 (1): 51 V. c. 15, s. 3, part. (2) In case of the death of the person entitled subject to the charge, .and of his interest therein passing to infant heirs or devisees, the notice shall be given as aforesaid to liis executors or administrators, as well as to his heirs or devisees, as the case may be. (3) The notice for aoi infant heir is to be served upon his guardian, and is also to be served upon the infant himself, if over the age of twelve years. R. S. O. 1887, c. 102, s. 20 (2-3); 42 V. c. 20. s. 3. Section 12 of Lord Cranworth's Act had six months' notice; 42 Vict. c. 20, s. 3, has three months' notice ; (l/) R. S. O. 1897, c. 12G.

The words " to any subsecpient incumbrancer and to the person entitled," etc., leave no doiibt as to notice* being due to the " assigns •' of the mortgagor. The words " either personally or at his usual or last place of residence " contain an ambiguity. " His '" may be taken 1o refer to " the person entitled to the proi)erty," so that jiosting up a notice (or leaving it) at the moitgagor's residence mav be taken to be good service on the assigns [a). The words "at any time after any default" allow the notice to run concurrently with the period o£ de- fault. Notice to Executors, etc. — Ditliculties may ai-ise in this connection where no administrators have been appointed (b). The mode of notice to an infant heir (sub-section li) was suggested by the absurdity of the then, and (ai)art from this Act) present condition of the law on this sub- ject. This condition of the law has been stated in Itart- lett V. Jull {(•), wliere the mortgagee served the widow and the administrator of tlie mortgagoi". with a notice addressed to her as widow, instead of serving the parly properly entitled, a child of three years. The sale was set aside as he had served a person who "had nothing to do with tlie matter.'' 81. When a sale has been effected in professed exercise of the powers hereby conferred, the title of the purchaser shall not be liable to be impeached on the ground that no case had ari.sen to authorize the exercise of such power, or that such power has been improperly or irregularly exercised, or that no such notice as (x) By 51 A'ict. c. 1.^) (Out.) s. 3.

There have been several decisions under section 15 of Lord Cran worth's Act; to which this present section corresponds: In Re Solomon Meagher's Contract (i), an equitable mortgage was created by deed, containing an agreement that, when called upon, the mortgagor would execute to the lenders a legal and proper mortgage with power of sale and all other powers, provisos, and agreements usually contained or inserted in mortgages. The mort- gagees contracted to sell the premises under the power of sale in Lord Cranworth's Act, and an application was made under the Vendor and Purchaser Act to determine whether b. tag equitable mortgagees they could make an effectual conveyance. It was held that they could. (/) Si'o Ro Al.itott V. Mcdcalf, 20 O. R. 299 (1891); Bloor v. Bank of U. C. 2 O. S. 31 (1844). (fir) Cf. Calloway v. Peoples, 54 Ga. 441. (h) Harper v. Culvert, 5 O.

The 32nd section of Lord Cranwortli's Act and tbe 19tli section of the Conveyancing Act, 1881, are both more liberal in this respect; the statutory power taking effect subject to the special stipulations in the deed. 2ii. — (1) Whenever a mortgage made in pursuance of the Act respecting Short Forms of Mortgages contains a power of sale in the form No. 14, in column one of Schedule B to the said Act, the mortgagee, his heirs, executors, administrators or as- signs may, in exercising the said power, in lieu of taking the proceedings provided for by the said form No. 14, column two, take proceedings under and have the benefit of the provisions of Part II. of this Act, except that such power shall not be exercis- able until after at least four months' default, and at least two months' notice, or such longer periods as may by the power contained in such mortgage be fixed therefor, and the said Part II. shall apply to a sale made under such power. 51 Vict. c. 15, s. 4. ' (2) Whenever a mortgage purporting to be made in pur- suance of the Act respecting Short Forms of Mortgages con- tains a power of sale which provides for a sale without notice, the mortgagee, his heirs, executors, administrators or assigns may take proceedings to sell under and sell and have the benefit o£ the provisions of Part II. of this Act as fully and effectually as. if the mortgage had not contained a power of sale. This sub- section shall be held to apply to all mortgages whether hereto- fore or hereafter made. 53 Vict. c. 27, s. 1. Effect of Above Sub-sections. — These enactments are intended to amend the law as elucidated in Re Gil- christ and Island {k). To summarize their effect, we may say: — 1. That on four months' default as to principal (or six months' default as to interest), there is a power of sale — after certain proceedings mentioned in Part II. of this Act — in any mortgage not containing an express power of sale; (A) 11 O. li. 537 (188G). See iufrn under II. S. O. 1897, c. 126, clause 14. m ACT RESPECTING MORTGAGES OF REAL ESTATE. 247 iil- 2. That in any mortgage made in pursuance of the Short Forms Act, and containing a power according to the form therein, the above power of sale may be exer- cised optionally; and 3. That, when in a mortgage purporting to be made in pursuance of the Short Forms Act, there is a power of sale without notice, the mortgagee may exercise the above power as if none other existed; but •4. That, where the mortgage does not purport to be made in pursuance of the Short Forms Act, and yet contains a power of sale that for some reason is not safely available, there is no such power of sale implied as above; and also 5. That, wliere the mortgage does i)uii)ort to be made in pursuance of the Short Forms Act, but its power of sale clause is excluded from the beneflt of that Act for some othci* reason than the excision of the pro- vision for notice, there is no such power of sale implied as above.

I think the order f(U' the injunction was rightly made for anything that appears here. The order sliould, I think, be continued as asked till the 24tli November'' ((>). The defendants in this latter case seem, in a mea- sure, to have been the victims of the Kevisors; for 47 Met. c. 1(5, s.

'* It ought not to be supposed by any one tliat serving the two papers togetlier could defeat the statute. The Aery object is to prevent all other proceedings while the notice is running. It is not necessary under the statute to fulfil the very words of it that one of the acts should be prior to the other. Both acts may be done together and yet the statute be violated. I must set aside the ser- vice of this writ, ^ith costs; and I stay all proceedings in this suit upon payment of the debt and interest, and of the costs of the writ, but without any costs of the copy or service of the writ, and without allowance of any costs of the noti' e.

When such doniand or notice requires payment of all moneys secured to bo paid by or under a mortgage, the party making such demand or giving such notice shall accept and receive payment of the same if made as required by the terms of such notice or demand; and if there be any dispute as to the costs payable by the person by or on whose behalf such payment is either made or tendered, then such costs shall, on three clear days' notice to such person by the person claiming the same, be taxed and ascertained by the clerk of a County Court, or by a local master aforesaid, and thereupon and in such case, if within ten days after said costs have been so taxed and ascertained, pay- ment of said moneys and costs are duly made or tendered to the person entitled thereto, or to his solicitor or agent in that behalf, the same shall be deemed and taken to have been paid or ten- dered, as the case may be, within the meaning of such notice or (f/) Lyon v.

It uiaiies an exercise by the mortgagee of his option to accelerate {i.e., require payment of all moneys secured), definite and final (r); 2. It effectually settles any claim the mort- gagee might possiibly have for six months' interest in lieu of notice; and 3. It provides machinery for settling the troublesome and uncertain item called *' costs." JIJl. The purchaser In good faith of a mortgage may to the extent of the mortgage (and except as against the mortgagor, his heirs, executors, or administrators), set up the defence of purchase for value without notice in the same manner as a purchaser of the property mortgaged might do. R. S. O. 1887, c. 102, s. 32; R. S. O. 1877, c. 95, s. 8. The object of this enactment seems to have been to remove a point of difference that existed among our eludges. Thus in Smart v. McEvvan {s), we find Strong, V.C., saying: — "The plaintiff's equity being established, it binds the defendant, although he took the transfer of the mortgage from Orde without notice and for value; for I adhere to my decision in the case of Kyck- man v. The Canada Life Assurance Conipan^^ (/), found- ed on the authorities there quoted, that an assignee of a mortgage cannot set up a defence of purchase for value without notice.'' This view of things was differ- ent from that taken by Vankoughnet, C, in Muir v. Dunnett (?/), and by Mowat, V.C, in Totten v. Doug- las (r). The present enactment came into force in 187(5 (;/). Since the passing of the enactment there have been sev- eral decisions bearing on the subject. In Wright v. (r) Cf. Cruso v. Bond, 9 P. R. Ill; 1 O. R. 384 (1882). (s) IS Gr. (i24 (1871).

The general rule is that the assignee takes subject to the equities between the original parties to the mortgage (&). JI4. No sale made prior to the 23rfl day of March, 1888, shall be doclarod to be invalid on the ground or by reason only of the same having beon made in pursuanco of a power of sale con- tained in a mortgage where such power has been exercised by an assignee of such mortgage instead of the original mortgagee, unless within two years after the making of any such sale, pro- ceedings have been taken to declare the same to be invalid or irregular; but nothing in this section contained shall be deemed or construed to confirm any such sale which for any other reason or any other ground might be set aside, or declared irregular or invalid; nor shall anything herein contained afi'ect any proceed- ing, suit, or matter, adjudged or determined before or pending at the said date, or brought within three months thereafter. 51 Vict. c. 15, s. 5.

The Personal Covenant to Pay. — Some proposed changes in nioi'tgage law, cbicti.v with a view to the abolition of the above covenant, were before the Ontario Legislature in its session, 57 Viet., but do not seem to have been favorably received, and did not pass. Formerly the breach of such a covenant created a debt good for twenty years; but by 5() Vict. c. 17, the period has been reduced to ten years, tlie last mentioned enactment appears in R. S. O. 1S97, <•- 72, s.

Ruttan (>/), says: "This mortgage deed of the lOth April, 1855, although it contains no recital, comprises the usual absolute mortgagor's covenants for title. Now, for upwards of forty years it has been held in Tapper Canada that covenants for title, especially the usual covenant that the granting party is seised in fee at the date of the deed, a covenant which this deed con- tains in the absolute, not in the ordinary restricted form, are as effectual in working an estoppel as a recital to the same etTect would have been. The cases to which I refer, and which are always referred to as the leading cases on this point, are three: Doe Hannesey v. ^Meyers (o). Doe Irvine v. Webster (/?), McLean v. Laidlaw {(/).

The effect of the earlier provision as to default in giving the right to enter without notice, or to take possession if it can be peaceably obtained, is seen in such cases as Doe d. Garrod v. Olley, 12 A. & E. 481, and Lowe v. Tel- ford, 1 App. Cas. 414. " Being then, upon and after the default, entitled to possession, it was, in my opinion, competent for the mortgagee to rent the land so as not to Interfere with the right of the mortgagor or the plaintiff to redeem. If the security' was scanty as I find, and the interest was in arrear, then it was con)petent for the mortgagee to make the best provision he could for his own safety; even to the cutting down of trees; and if so, he could confer that power upon others under him, subject always to the right of the owner of the equity of redemption to call both to an account at the proper time. "The power of leasing also exists when the mort- gagee takes possession, though his lease may not bind the owner of the equity of redemption. A lease so made, in case of sufficient security, if not made pursuant to the 14th proviso, would be subject to the right of the mortgagor to pay up arrears of interest and resume pos- session. Itnt that manner of relief is not asked, nor would it serve the purpose of the plaintiff' in this case; but were it the precise point of contention, I should question the right of the mortgagor to obtain it in the case of a scanty security, when the mortgagee has been compelled to protect himself by making the most provi- dent lease possible."

The most coinniou form of mortj^agoo insurance in Canada is to take out a policy in the njune of the mort- }?afi;oi', and to append to it a slip such as the follow- ing:— "At the request of the assured, the loss, if any, under this policy is hereby made i)ayal»le 1o (name of mortgagee) as (his, etc.) interest may api»ear." Mortgage Clause in Policies. — It is usual, how- ever, to insert a mortgage «'lause to which the respective rights of the mortgagee and the insurer are made sub- ject by adding the words, " subject to the conditions of the above mortgage clause." IW,- I j It- - I ' 2G6 FOllECLOSUUE OF MOIlTGAfJES. t I ml ?ii "This clause is a special stipulation, operative only between the insurance coiiipany and savings banks, or other money loaning institutions or individuals to which it may be conceded, usually accompanying a mortgagor's policy when loss thereunder is made pay- able to such parties as mortgagees, and intended as a protection against any acts or omissions on the part of the insured, the mortgagor, by which the insurance might become invalid to such mortgagor; in which event the policy would continue to cover the interests of such mortgagees, though the insured may have set fire to the premises, or otherwise wilfully caused loss. Thus, as the mortgagor has no interest in the clause — it not be- coming oi)erative until his legal interest in the insurance shall have entirely ceased — it is difficult to conceive why it should, as in the present practice, form one of the stipulations attached to his policy, which was not the custom in the earlv davs of the use of this clause, which then, very probably, was considered and treated as a separate transaction altogetiier. " The first use of this clause was by the Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York, early in 1860. It was very exacting upon the companies, entirely nulli- fying maii3' of the most saving stipulations of the policy as issued to owners directly. This form soon became common among other loaning institutions, and for many years subsequent this clause was a source of much vexa- tion and annoyance to the companies and the Courts as well, until some of the more prominent offices refused to write them. From time to time, however, improve- ments were introduced into the clause, such as the right of cancellation by the company theretofore denied, con- tribution, etc., under which the fact that the companies had some rights that these grasping mortgagees should respect was recognized " (/). The form of "mortgage clause" adopted by the Underwriters' Association of Canada is the following: — % ■ 1 (t) GriswoUl: Fire Underwriters' Text Book, 2nd Ed., 304. ACT RESPECTING SHORT FORMS OF MORTGAGES. 267 " It is hereby provided and agreed, tliat tl>e insiir- nnce, as to interest of tlie mortgagees only therein, sliall not be invalidated by any act or neglect of the mort- gagor or owner of the property insured, nor by the occu- pation of the premises for purposes more hazardous than are permitted by this policy." " It is further provided and agreed that the mort- gagees shall at once notify said comi)any of non-occupa- tion or vacancy for over thirty days, or of any change of ownership or increased hazard that shall come to their knowledge, and that every increase of hazard, not permitted, by the mortgagor or owner, shall be paid for bj' the mortgagees on reasonable demand from the date such hazard existed, according to the established scale of rates for the use of such increased hazard during the continuance of this insurance. " It is also further provided and agreed, that when- ever the company shall pay the mortgagees any sum for loss under this policy, and shall claim that as to the mortgagor or owner no liability therefor existed, it shall be at once legally subrogated to all right of the mort- gagees under all the securities held as collateral to the mortgage debt to the extent of such payment, or at its option, the company may pay to the mortgagees the whole principal due or to grow due on the mortgage, with interest, and shall thereupon receive a full assign- ment and transfer of the mortgage (»), and all other securities held as collateral to the mortgage debt, but no such subrogation shall impair the rights of the mort- gagees to recover the full amount of their claim. "It is also further provided and agreed, that in the event of the said property being further insured with this or any other ofltice, on behalf of the owner or mort- gagee, the company, except such other insurance when made by the mortgagor or owner shall prove invalid, shall only be liable for a ratable proportion of any loss or damage sustained.''

Wilson, C.J., said: "The interest of ilie plaintitf, referred to in the policy, is his interest as mortgagee, for although the fact of his lieing mortgagee is not stated, it may be averred under the term, 'as liis interest may appear '" (r). Effect of Covkxant Without Formal Assigx- MKNT OF I'oLiCY. — A coveuaiit to insure for the benefit of an ineumbrancer ojierates as an ecpiitable assignment of the policy of insurance when effected. Therefore where a moi-tgagor enters into such a covenant it is not necessary, in the interest of the mortgagee, that an as- signment of the policy or interim receipt should be actu- ally nuide; it is sufficient if the insurers in case of loss have notice of the fact before settling with the mort- gagor, and if after being notified of the rights of the mortgagee they pay over the insurance money to the mortgagor or a transferee of the policy or receipt, they so at their peril; and such payment will be no an- swer to a suit at the instance of the mortgagee («). "And if the Said Mortgagee . . . Shall Pay Any rREMiUMs." — If the mortgagee charges the mort- gagor with the i)remiums and undertakes to procure the insurance, he is, in case through his neglect to pay the premiums the policies lapse, liable to the extent the in- surance company would have been, had the policies been continued by the jtayment of the premiums (.r). Separate Insuraxce by Mortgagor and Mort- gagee. — AVhei'e there is separate insurance in Favour of mortgagee and mortgagor, the latter is not ')ound by a settlement of the loss between the former aud the in- surance company (//).

But it was held that they could not confer a good title, as in construing this power resort could not be had to the long form iu column two, inasmuch as notice was dispensed with, which was not a mere ex- ception from, nor qualiticaticn of, the short form in column one, but an abolition of one of its most ini- portt? it terms. Accordingly, the power being left to its own force no one but the persona designata, i.e., the original mortgagee, could exercise it (c). A still stricter view has been taken in an article In the Canadian Law Times (/), attempting, with consider- able force, to show that powers of sale without notice are merely void, as offending against the rules of equity in two particulars; they fetter (if they do not actually destroy) the equity of redemptit)n, and they fall within the category of unconscionable bargains ((/).

It was held, Burton, J.A., dissenting, that the power of sale could be validly exercised by the assigns of the mortgagees. Exercise of Power of Sale Cannot Be Treated AS A Nullity. — In Tatterson v. Tanner (//), the mortga- gees sold under power to one of the original mortgagors, who had disposed of his equity. The purchaser having refused to carry out his contract, Ihe mortgagees did not insist upon his doing so, but tried to fall back on his original covenant. Mr. Justice Street, however, de- cided as follows: "The mortgagees, having exercised their power of sale and entered into a contract to sell the mortgaged premises, cannot be permitted without some sufficient reason to treat the sale as a nullity, and fall back upon their mortgage as if the exercise of the power had been a mere matter of form. See the statu- tory form of the power of sale at p. 972 of the Kevised Statutes of Ontario." " Mortgagor, His ITeirs or Assigns." — Execution creditors of the mortgagor are " assigns" (n).

The question then arose, could the mortgagee legally distrain? Boyd, C. — " The mortgage in this case is in the usual printed statu- tory short form, with certain written additions. There is the distress clause printed, but there is a prior written clause providing that the mortgagees shall look to the land alone for payment. These are inconsistent and contradictory provisions, so that the question arises which shall prevail. For two reasons the earlier con- trols, both because it is the first in tlie deed, and because it is in writing. The principle of construction is thus laid down by Lord Ellenborough in Robertson v. French, 4 East, at p. I'AG: 'If there should be any reasonable doubt upon the sense and meaning of the whole, the words superadded in writing are (»ntitled to have a greater etl'ect attributed to them than to the printed words inasmuch as the written words are the immedi- ate language and terms selected by the parties them- selves for the expression of their meaning, and the printed words are a general formula adapted equally to their case, and that of all other contracting parties upon similar occasions and subjects ' (;).

Rkijkf Against Accelkuation. — The above deci- sion left considerable ambiguity as to whether a Court of Equity would relieve against the acceleration of the pnncipal. Thus Hagarty, C.J., Q.15., said: "I do not clearly understand the exact state of the law on this subject in our Court of Chancery, looking at the cases from Knap)) v. Cameron, (> Gr. iiWi). . . . down to Cruso v. Itond, and Tylee v. Hinton. I fully concur with the exjjression of opinion of Moss, C.J.A., at p. GO, of Tylee v. Hinton "(ry). The opinion referred to is: "If it is a part of the bargain made upon a sale of lands that the unpaid balance of the purchase money shall be secured by a mortgage providing for payment by instalments if these paynuMits are nuide punctually, but accelerating the pay- ment in the event of default, I am not at present able 1o perceive that the Court of Chancery could, either by virtue of the general order or its inherent jurisdiction to relieve against penalties and forfeitures, restrain the vendor from insisting upon payment in full upon default being made (r).

The following is an ex- tract from this case: — Counsel for the defendant: "A solicitor might make such a condition, knowing of the existence of some prior incumbrance on the property, and then, afterwards, voluntarily disclose the incum- brance, and thus escape the penalties imposed by 22 & 23 Vict. c. 35, s. 24."

As between the mort{?aj?ors and the mortj^agees of the whole property no (piestion of shares could arise; the moi'tjfaftee owns the whole, subject to th<» right of redemi)tion. It may, however, be the case that one of several joint ownei's has mortgagi'd his undivided inter- est (//); in which case, doubtless, his niort{;aj;ee would be a necessai'y i)arty to any j)artition. Similarly, the execution creditor of one of several joint owners would be a^iecessary party to a partition. The 44th section further provides, in ease of sahv for ascertaining what creditors have specific liens " on (b) Cf. Laplanto v. Seamen, 8 A. R. 557 (1883). .

(1) It shall not be compulsory, in the first instance, to make any person having a lien on the estate, or any part thereof, by decree, mortgage or otherwise, a party to the procet'dlngs, but the petitioner may make such creditor a party, and, in such case, the petition shall set forth the nature of the lien or incumbrance; and if the lien or incumbrance is on the undivided interest or estate of any of the parties to the petition, it shall be a lion only on the share of such party; and such share or titite as the case may be, shall be first charged with its just proportion of the costs of the proceedings in partition in preference to any such lieu. (2) If the person having the lien is not made a party to the proceedings, his lien shall not be impaired or affected thereby. R. S. O. 1887, c. 104, s. 21. In Macdougall v. Macdougall (d), Yankoughnet, C, says: ''If a mortgage be created by the owner of the entire estate, partition can be had subject to that mort- gage; but, if the owner of an undivided interest mort- gage his legal estate in it, his mortgage must, I think, be before the Court. He must join in the conveyance; any extra expense occasioned by this should be borne by the mortgagor (e). The mortgagor has chosen to put the legal estate ouf of him. Surely when he seeks par- tition he must bring that legal estate before tlie Court for the benefit and protection of his co-tenants whom he seeks to bind. (c) See Carroll v.

Waugh, L. 11. 1 Eq. ilS, and Ko ^larsli- lield, :U (^1. I). 7Ul, shows that the statute does not apply to such a suit. " Is a mortgagee, who has boon in possession of mortgaged lands from which no income was derivable for nine years, to be entitled on redemption to only six years' arrears of interest? I think it plain tliat the sta'tute is only applicable when the mortgagee is seeking to enforce i)ayment out of tho land of his mortgage nionej' and interest, b}' action.

" I am of the opinion, therefore, that the plaintiff is entitled to retain out of the moneys in Court the mortgage moneys secured by both his mortgages, . . and all arrears thereon, and that the interest on the principal nioneys thereby secured must after the date when they become payable bear interest at the rate of ill REAL PROPERTY LIMITATION ACT. 311 of six per cent, per annum onlj-.

DisrrN'CTiox lii-rwKF.N Rights of Entkv of ^Iort- GACOR AND MouTCAc.Ki:. — lu the case of Cameron v. Walker (r), the curious result was arrived at that a mort- gagor might be barred by the statute, while his mort- gagee could still be within llie statutory jx'riod. ''It had been taken for grant* d in expressions used in some cases (though n -t so decided) that if the statute has begun to run in favour of the occupant prior to the owner mortgaging the property, it will continue to run as against the mortgagee. But the decision in Heath V. Pugh, (> Q. li. 1). IM.'), and 7 App. Cas. '2:i~}, has placed in clear light the relations of mortgagor and mortgagee, and since the Judicature Act, the e(iuital)le doctrine prevails. " J{y that doctrine, the conveyance of the legal estate to the mortgagee was regarded merely as security for a debt, and ui)on the mortgagee's death, both debt and security passed to the excculoi*. The interest in the land is not in the mortgagee, but remained in the mort- gagor. I'ossession might be taken by the mortgagee upon default, but that is a very distinct and ditferent thing from possession as owner of the estate. The tith^ of the mortgagee is an equitable title; the right of pos- session upon that mortgage title tirst accrues after the making of the mortgage; and the Statute of Limitations quoad possession of the land, can only run from that time. "The right of entry exercisable by the mortgagee, is a very ditferent and distinct thing from the right of entry still remaining in the mortgagor. If, before the right of entry under the mortgage is barred by the sta- tute, proceedings are taken to foreclose or sell under (c) 10 O. R. 212 (1800). 316 FOUECLOSUllE OF MOllTGAGES.

"The rifiht to proceed in ecjuity on tlu' mortj^age would first accrue after the making of the mort<»ase, and as soon as default arose, and it is an eminently rea- sonable construction to give to the Statute of Linnta- tions that the right to enter upon the land first accrues to the mortgagee at tlie same time " (d). Purchase From Mortgagee Uxder Power of Sale. — " Under the authorities of Heath v. Pugh (r) and Doe d. Baddeley v.

This view was not adojtted by the Court, as in the first ])lace the first mortgage debt was not the debt of the second mortgagee; and even "had the case been otiierwise, it would by no means follow, because a suit had been instituted which would arrest the operation of the statute? against the debt, that there- fore its operation in favour of the mortgagee against the estate must be arrested.

Stevenson (l), where a subse(iiient mort- gagee took the property from the assignee in insolvency and made payments on the first mortgage till within ten years of the bringing of the action for foreclosure, it was held that as the subsequent mortgagee was under the circumstances primarily bound to pay olT the prior in- cumbrances that, therefore, his payments kept alive the plaintiff's rights. As expressed by INIaclennan, J.A. (l) : *' The present action is also one of foreclosure, and therefore we must hold tliat the case is governed hy sec- tion 22 and not by sectiim 23 so far as there may be any difference between the two sections as to the class of persons by whom valid payment may be made of iirin- cipal money and interest. It is true that in making the revision of 18S7, section 23 was altered from the form in which it had stood from the year 1834, when it was first enacted, by the insm-tion in the second line of the words ' out of any land or rent.' I think, however, these Avords make no difference in a case of foreclosure, the one section still relating to actions for the recoverv of land, !uul tlni utlicr to actions for the recovery of monev. It cannot now be contended that pavment bv a mere stranger will do. lie must be a person who has some right to pay, and whose payment the mortgagee could not properly refuse."
