This casé was presented and argued with that of the Union Trust Co. v. Detroit Common Council, ante, 692 (137 N. W. 122). It relates to the question of tax-paid mortgages amounting to $848,707.49. The same question is presented, and is subject to the same rules as in the other case, and the action of the court below was the same.
The judgment of the circuit court is affirmed.
