C. Clemans and A. C. Clemans, for appellants.
Howk, J. - In this action, the appellees sued the appellants, in a complaint of three paragraphs.
The first paragraph counted upon a note and mortgage, executed by the appellant William J. Strieby, to one Alexander McLewis, and both bearing date on the 2d day of February, 1870. The note was for the sum of $100.00, and its payment was secured by the mortgage given on certain real estate, particularly described, in Kosciusko county. In the first paragraph of their complaint, the appellees alleged that said not and mortgage were assigned by said McLewis to William Wilson; that, by such assignment, the said Wilson took the said note and mortgage as the guardian of the minor heirs of Frances E. Grose, deceased, and the same became the property of said minor heirs; that said William Wilson was then dead; that that appellees, Minnie M. Nash and Zilpha Howsington, were the said heirs of the said Frances E. Grose, deceased, and were then of full age and entitled to receive their estate, and the said not and mortgage belonged to them; that the said note was due and unpaid, except a certain credit endorsed thereon; that said mortgage was duly recorded in the recorder’s office of said county, and after such record the said Strieby sold and conveyed the said real estate to the appellant Elias Leedy, who was then the owner thereof, subject to the lien of said mortgage; ... In the second paragraph of their complaint, the appellees sued upon another note and mortgage, executed by said Strieby to said McLewis. The note was fore $116.15, and was dated on February 12th, 1870; and the mortgage was dated on March 13th, 1871, and was given on the same real estate as that described in the first paragraph, to secure the payment of said note.
