Legally Established.
The Supreme Court has rendered a de-
cision in the case of J. Il. Martin. re-
spondent, VS.. the Board of Supervisors of
Yolo County. appellant an appeal from a
Judgment of the Superior Court in a pro-
ceeding of mandamus requiring the ap-
pellant to estimate the cost of erecting a
County High School building, of furnish
ing the same, and of conducting the
school for twelve months.
The court holds that the acts which the
judgment compels appellants to perform
are not acts which the law specially en-
joins, because no lot OF land has been
acquired on which to construct the build
ing. Fhe promise of Ross 81 Bush to
''vouch'' that the city of Woodland would
furnish lot IL the appellant would erect
thereon first class" high school is too
vague to be considered as furnishing any
sort of title to the lot mentioned.
1t is quite clear from the statute that
the Board of Supervisors must own the
lot on which the building is erected, and
must convey it, after the completion OF
the building, to the Board of Education,
who must hold it IN trust for the county.
The judgment is reversed.

The answer is a plea in bar.
Casaccia assumed the debt of one Flan-
igan, who owed him, to the bank, and
took a mortgage on Flanigan's property
giving to the bank as collateral security
mortgage on his own property. and
taking from Flanagan a mortgage on his,
which he also gave the bank as security
for his (Casaceia's) note to it.
The bank foreclosed the Flanagan
mortgage, not making Casaecia a party tc
the action, and leaving deficiency, Oh
which they commenced action to fore
close the mortgage on Casaccia's prop
erty. He held that they were barred
from the latter recourse on account of i'm.
proper procedure. The court affirms til.
