The purchaser at a mortgage foreclosure sale cannot refuse to carry out his purchase on account of defects of title prior to the execution of the mortgage foreclosed. It is the equity of redemption that is cut oft' by the sale; that is all that the law authorizes to be done, and the purchaser is bound to know, when he bids, that he is getting nothing else.
