iDg'y Sign n Mortgage Deed.

EX-Judge William II. Arnoux feels very
fore to-day over the order which was
signed yesterday by Justice Barrett, in
the Supreme Court. vacatlng n Judgment
of foreclosure which he obtained against
the property at G2 South Firth avenue.
under "A second mortgage held by him
for sl5. 900.
The Order was granted upon the appll-
cation of Miss Amy c. Phyfe, in whose
name the property stands, who alleged
In her AFFIDAVIT that she knew of no sec
ond mortgage upon the property. and II
she had signed any such paper II was
done without her knowledge of its con-
tents.
In fact, she claimed that she had been
tricked and deceived. and that she had
never been asked to pay n cent of inter-
est on the mortgage. although 1t was
claimed that II had been I'm existence
several years, and that she knew moth
ing about the foreclosure suit brought
by judge ArnouX until Judgment had
been obtained. She asked that the de-
tault be re0pencd and the right given
her TO come in and defend the suit.
rms right the order granted by Justice
Barrett gives. EN-Judge Armour. on the
other hand, said TINS morning tina his
claim against the estate was perfectly
well-established that the mortgage had
been signed by Miss Phyfc in the regular
way anu WIN INll knbWltlGr or the
facts In 1880, and he showed the paper
with her signature attached.
with regard to the assertion that he
had never demanded interest ON his
mortgage, he said that II was not true.
demand had repeatedly been made by
him upon John H.. phyfc. the father Of
Miss phyfe, and he had paid certain
sums at intervals. although he was far
In arrears. He was fully informed Of
all the circumstances
The Who'll transaction grew out of
certain suits which were brought against
the executors Of the estate OF the late
william Campbell. and the property in
question was decided to Miss Phyfe
simply for the purpose of enabling
money to be raised on II by means Of
mortgages to satisfy these claims. as
the executors had no power to mortgage
1t.
a first mortgage Of $l5,GO was given
ana the money raised was paid over to
the estate. hen a second MORTGAGE Of
flh,,~l was given to Judge Armour in
satisfaction OF his claim. The latter
to-day. denied most omphatiCally that
there had been any triCkcry or deceit
lrhctisod In securing this mortgage, and
he was perfectly willing to have all the
facts in connection with the case come
before the public.
Lawyer Parkinson. who represents
Miss Phyfe. paid over to Judge Arnoux
this morning 500. tho amount of COSTS
and disbursements in the foreclosure suit
to tn" present time, which was the
condition named by Justice Barrett as
the consideration ~ his setting aside
the judgment and opening the default.
