On June 2, 1874, Millard mortgaged a joke of oxen, a pair of horses, and a lumber-wagon to Spicer and Larson, to secure his two promissory notes held by them, and amounting to $200. In August following, Millard sold the oxen to Bichards. After this, Millard executed u second mortgage of the horses and wagon to Spicer and Larson, to secure his further indebtedness to them in the sum of $100. On March 18, 1875, when the indebtedness secured by the two mortgages amounted to $325, Millard and Spicer and Larson entered into an arrangement by which Millard made an absolute sale and delivery of the horses and wagon to Spicer and Larson, for the agreed price of $358. By the terms of the arrangement, $275 only of the agreed price was to be applied upon the mortgage debts.. This was so applied as to pay the debt secured by the second mortgage in full, and so as to pay all the indebtedness secured by the first mortgage except $50. The remainder of the :$358 was applied to the payment of other debts owing by Millard to Spicer and Larson, not covered by either mortgage, and which accrued after Spicer and Larson had notice of plaintiff’s purchase of the oxen. Subsequently, under and by virtue of the first mortgage, upon which the sum of $50 remained, in the language of .the court below, “ uncancelled,” and Avhich was, by the terms of the mortgage, overdue, Spicer and Larson caused the oxen to be taken from plaintiff’s possession and sold in satisfaction .of said sum of $50.

Whatever, iu -duty to the plaintiff, Spicer and Larson ■ought to have done in applying the agreed price of $358, and Avhatever application the plaintiff might have compelled them to make cf it, the effect of the arrangement of March 18th, between .Spicer and Larson and Millard, Avas to leave :$50 of the debt secured by the first mortgage unpaid in fact, iind to leave the mortgage .still subsisting as security for that *214sum ; and, when the sum thus secured became due, Spicer and Larson had a legal right to take the mortgaged property, or any part of it, and sell it, as they did, under the mortgage, in satisfaction of their claim. Until such sale the plaintiff was entitled to redeem, hut if he had any equities which entitled him to insist that the agreed price of the horses and wagon, under the arrangement of March 18, 1875, should he applied to satisfy and extinguish the first mortgage, so as to release the oxen, it ivas his duty to take seasonable measures to assert his equities and stop the sale. See Johnson v. Williams, 4 Minn. 260. As he failed to do so, and no excuse is found for his failure, and as, upon the findings, the sale must he presumed to have been fairly conducted and to he clear of any fraud, we perceive no ground upon which the plaintiff can now attack it, or successfully claim that it in any degree violated his rights, or subjected Spicer and Larson to any liability to him.

Judgment reversed.
