*391On Motion for Rehearing.
(Cases 54745, 54746)
It is urged that under authority of Weems v. Coker, 70 Ga. 746, a default must be proved before confirmation of a foreclosure, and that our recent Court of Appeals cases construing Code Ann. §§ 67-1503 through 67-1506 (Ga. L. 1935, p. 381) must yield to that paramount decision. Weems v. Coker, decided in 1883, has no relevance to the statutory law which was passed in 1935.
Under our decisions, dealing with the language of the statute, default is not an issue.

Judgments adhered to.

(Case 54748)
It is argued that no objection was made with regard to the failure to introduce evidence regarding the legality and regularity of the sale; thus, there would be no basis to urge such failure as grounds for reversal by the court.
The evidence in question was necessary to sustain the judgment. Its absence was therefore fatal and such issue could be raised here in the enumerations of error. See Code Ann. § 6-702 (a) (Ga. L. 1965, pp. 18, 20; Ga. L. 1966, pp. 493, 494).

Judgment adhered to.
