Abstract

The Bank of Mobile seeks to foreclose on a mortgage issued by them to John Maysant, via three promissory notes, totaling $13,230.51. In order to secure payment on these notes, the Bank contends, Maysant executed a deed of trust payable to the Bank mortgaging certain tracts of land and thirty-three slaves. Inasmuch as the notes remain unpaid, the petitioners request "your Honors to order and decree that said Mortgage shall be foreclosed" allowing the "lands conveyed thereby to be sold" and Maysant's "Equity of redemption be fore barred."

Result: Granted.
