22. So in Foster v. Johnson, 39 Minn. 378, 40 N. W. 255, it is held that an averment that a mortgage was "assigned" is a sufficient averment of an assignment of the notes, since an assignment of the mortgage without the notes is nugatory. Hamilton v. Browning, 94 Ind. 242 is contra.
89 N. Y. Supp. 238, rev'd, 182 N. Y. 387, 75 N. E. 232.
Occasionally it is said that an assignment in terms of the mortgage does not pass the debt unless an intention to that effect is shown (Fletcher v. Carpenter, 37 Mich. 412; Earll v. Stumpf, 56 Wis. 50), the objection to which is that it appears to impose upon the transferee in every case the burden of showing an intention to transfer the debt. Having regard to the ordinary use of the expression "assignment o' mortgage," the presumption should be the other way.
24. Carpenter v. O'Dougherty, 67 Barb. (N. Y.) 397; Earll v. Stumpf, 56 Wis. 50, 13 N. W. 701.
26. Campbell v. Birch, 60 N. Y. 214, per Andrews, J.
27. That a testamentary disposition of a "mortgage" includes the debt, see Johnson v. Goss, 128 Mass. 433; Klock v. Stevens, 20 N. Y. Misc. 383, 45 N. Y. Supp. 603.

Boardman, 149 Mass. 106, 3 L. R. A. 785, 21 N. E. 308.
