J., Carswell, Adel and Close, JJ., concur; Hagarty, J., dissents and votes to reverse and to deny the motion, with the following memorandum: Upon the facts alleged, I am of opinion that the plaintiff is estopped from contesting the defendant-appellant’s rights under its lease, executed not only by the owner but by the mortgagee, Lawyers Title and Guaranty Company, in possession under an assignment of rents agreement.
