Opinion of the Court
This case will be reversed on the ground that the plaintiff below showed no title to the mortgage. He claimed under an assignment from Adee which recited a previous assignment to another person; which, in other words, admitted that the assignor had no title to assign. 'True, it says the prior assignment was made to Samuel Blackwood under whom the plaintiff claimed; but this was no evidence of that fact. Adee could admit title out of himself, but he could not admit title into any other.
