Abstract of the Decision.

1. Mortgages, § 645 —when hill of review to set aside a deficiency decree properly dismissed. A deficiency decree in a foreclosure proceeding was entered against a grantee of the mortgaged premises, who assumed the mortgage, and such grantee filed a hill to review the decree claiming that no deficiency decree could he entered against him in chancery for the reason that he did not own the premises when the bill for foreclosure was filed, and that he was not a proper party defendant to the hill in the absence of such an allegation. Held that the bill for review was properly dismissed for the reason that he had a complete remedy in the foreclosure proceeding if his contention was correct, first, by demurring to the foreclosure hill; second, by appealing from the deficiency decree entered against him; or third, by taking a writ of error and reviewing the whole proceeding for failure to find his ownership of the land, it also appearing that he could have answered the original bill setting up his conveyance, and it further appearing that he still had a right to prosecute a writ of error from the entire proceeding.

2. Mortgages, § 635 —against whom a deficiency decree may he entered. Where a grantee of mortgaged premises assumed the mortgage and later conveyed the premises to another before bill for foreclosure was filed, held that he was a proper party defendant to a bill for foreclosure and that a deficiency decree could be entered against him.

3. Equity, § 554 —when hill is a hill of review and also in the nature of a hill of review. Where complainant in a bill to review a deficiency decree against him in a foreclosure proceeding alleged as an affirmative fact, not appearing in the record sought to be reviewed, that before the hill for foreclosure was filed he had conveyed the mortgaged premises to another, held that the bill was a bill for review and also a bill in the nature of a bill of review.
