Whether transaction is mortgage, or conditional sale-When the conveyance is abkolute on its face. and the contro- versy is whether 1t was intended as a mortgage or an unconditional sale, the party asserting that it was intended as a mortgage must show, by clear and con- vincing evidence, that 1t was so under stood and intended by the parties at the time of the original transaction; but, when 1t is admitted that the transaction was not, as the conveyance on it's face imports, an absolute and unconditional sale and it is doubtful whether It was intended as a mortgage or as a condition al sale, the court Is inclined to consider and treat it as mortgage.
 g. Same; same; facts to be considered in determining whether conveyance is c mortgage or conditional sale.-In deter mining whether a particular transaction is a mortgage or conditional sale 1t should be considered as to whether the relation of debtor and creditor existed at and before the time of the transaction; or if not. had the transaction commenced in a negotiation for the loan of money. was there great disparity between the value of the property and the consideration passing for 1t, was there a debt cOntinu- ing for the payment of which the vendor was liable.
