    EMPIRE TRUST CO. v. COLEMAN et al.
    (Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Second Department.
    February 5, 1915.)
    Action by the Empire Trust Company against Charles W. Coleman as executor and trustee, etc., of Charles Donohue, deceased, and others.
   PER CURIAM.

As to the question of interest upon the three separate mortgages involved in this action, we think the subject-matter is covered by the decision of the United States Supreme Court in Brown v. Marion National Bank, 18 Sup. Ct. 390, 169 U. S. 416, 42 L. Ed. 801, and that the judgment below (85 Misc. Rep. 312, 147 N. Y. Supp. 740) should be so modified as to provide interest at the legal rate of 6. per cent, on all three mortgages from the date of the beginning of this action, viz., June 24, 1913; the principal sum to be reduced, however, by the amount of $9,129.78, which had been voluntarily relinquished by the plaintiff appellant. As so modified, the judgment is affirmed, with costs to the plaintiff appellant. This modification of the judgment requires a reversal of several findings of fact made in favor of the defendant appellants, and the finding by this court of several requests to find facts and conclusions of law. The order making such reversals and new findings should be settled on notice. Settle order on notice before Mr. Justice CARR.

BURR, J., not voting.
