Hamilton c. G.
Morris, C.-In 1854 Bremen purchased land
of Boston and executed a mortgage thereon for
part of the purchase money. In 1885 he mar
ried appellant. In 1857 Boston brought suit TO
made a party to the suit, ana publication was
made upon tins affidavit: "Mr. Carver, being
sworn, says the above-named Conrad NJ. bren,
ner is a nonresident of the State Of indiana"
The land was sold under the decree to Boston,
Who in 1858, conveyed TO Quick. Bremen dled
in 1875, leaving appellant as his widow, who. in
1881, brought this suit 10 recover one-third Of
the land. The court found that the foreclosure
proceedings were void, but that the sheriff q
sale and deed showed color of title in the de-
PENDANTS ami that the plaintiffs action was bar
red oy the statute of limitations.
Held The affidavit of nonresident was IN
sufnclent, because it did not aver that cause
or action existed against the NONRESIDENT,
or That he was necessary party to the
suit. The court therefore, obtained no
Jurisdiction OF the defendant, and the proceed
1ngs and sale were void. (5S Ind, 3l6; Y ID,
ALL But the sheriff's deed gave color of title,
suit by Brenner, or anyone claiming under him,
was brought to recover the land within ten
years after the sale, under sec. 21l r. g., 1876,
the purchaser acquired title as against Bremen.
But this title did not relate back to the date Of
the mortgage as to pass the title which
Bremen then had, but the title was created by
operation OF law, and passed only such title as
Bremen had at the time the decree OF foreclos-
ure was rendered. BY her marriage with Bren-
ner, though after he had executed the mortgage,
appellant acquired an inchOate interest in the
land which became vested in her upon the death
of her husband, and could not be barred by pro
ceedinge to which she was not party. (4O
Ind, 575.) She did not take as heir OF her hus-
band, but took under sec. 81 of the descent law,
and her right could not be barred by the ten
years limitation. AS against Boston and those
claiming under his mortgage, she would not be
entitled to one-tbfrd of the land.

as unfOreclosed she would have al right

probably correct that the figures
are even higher than the one
given; the fever as was

The Wyndham Comedy Com
pany.

Last evening Mr.. Charles Wynd-
ham and his excellent comedy
appeared at the Salt Lake
Theatre III two sparkling pieces.the
first a comedietta, "Ruth's Re-
venge," and the second a most
Iaughable new comedy in three
acts, called Fourteen Days" The
first was merely an introductory
piece, though it showed that those
ladies and gentlemen who composed
the cast were thorough COM
edians. Fourteen Days" is
an admirable piece, giving
excellent opportunity for the tai
ented actor to amuse and entertain,
and the piece was played for all it
was worth. Mr.. Wyndham is an
artist in very original way natural,
easy, earnest and unusually effect
i've. He has remarkable faculty
Of producing mirth, not by buffoon-
cry and clownIsh actions and glib
berish, but by downright good act
ing. Mr.. Wyndham knows what
genuine humor is and he has the
faculty, in rare degree, of
depressing" himself - if the
term is admissable-in a clear and
effective manner. When he makes
up his mind the audience should
laugh at him, that is the time every
body laughs and they cannot resist
him. Messrs. Blakely, Ashley, Gid
dens, Draycott, Teesdale and Saber
comprehend the object of the char
acters they assume, and in proper
ton as their parts are essential to
the success of the performance, just
in that proportion are they promin-
ent. They are adopts in their sew
eral lines. The ladies-Misses
Ruke, Norreys, Vining and Sakel
are no less excellent, and equal tC
every demand made upon them
1t is seldom chat a company
is compo ed so generally of excellen1
materia and as their comedy is o.
the egllmate line, it is not to bt
wonder ed at that they have been 81
successful wherever they ap
peare /. Their success last nigh
was unqualified and Salt Laker
