    Appeal by plaintiff from Stack, J., at February Term, 1930, of Catawba.
    Civil action to restrain sale of land under deed of trust, for an accounting, and to redeem.
    Plaintiff, resident and citizen of Catawba County, brings tbis action in the county of her residence against the Virginia Trust Company, a foreign corporation, for the purpose of restraining a sale of land situate in Buncombe County on which the defendant .holds a deed of trust as surety for a loan, payment of which the plaintiff assumed when she purchased the land. The plaintiff and her predecessors having defaulted in the payment of said debt, the trustee advertised the property for sale under the power contained in the deed of trust, and the plaintiff in her complaint filed 11 December, 1929, prays for a “restraining order . . . for an accounting . . . and for such other and further relief as may be just and proper.”
    A temporary restraining order was obtained by the plaintiff, returnable before Hon. A. M. Stack at the courthouse in Monroe, 2 January, 1930, requiring the defendant to appear and show cause, if any it had, why the same should not be made permanent.
    After due notice to the plaintiff, and before time for answering had expired, the defendant, on 16 January, 1930, and before a hearing on the temporary restraining order had been held, duly entered a motion to have the cause transferred to Buncombe County for trial as the proper venue for said action.
    This motion was allowed, and from the order transferring the cause to Buncombe County for trial, the plaintiff appeals, assigning errors.

      Bourne, Parker & J ones for defendant.
    
   Stacy, C. J.,

after stating tbe case: This action is, in effect, one to redeem land from a mortgage or deed of trust, and necessarily calls for tbe determination, in some form, of tbe rights or interests of tbe parties therein. Tbe proper venue, therefore, is Buncombe County where tbe land is situated. C. S., 463. Tbe order of removal was correctly entered. Vaughan v. Fallin, 183 N. C., 318, 111 S. E., 513; Councill v. Bailey, 154 N. C., 54, 69 S. E., 760.

Causey v. Morris, 195 N. C., 532, 142 S. E., 783, strongly relied upon by tbe defendant, is not at variance with, but in support of, this position.

Affirmed.
