Kyllonen v. Acme Harvesting Machine Co.
Kyllonen v. Acme Harvesting Machine Co.
Opinion of the Court
This is an action to determine adverse claims concerning 120 acres of land in Logan County. The plaintiff has appealed from the judgment quieting title in the respondent Lehr, and demands a trial de novo. U. S. patent was issued to the planitiff in February 1914. In June 1913 he gave a mortgage upon the land to Dean & Company to secure $400.00. On December 12th, 1916 this Company assigned the mortgage to the Service Company which assignment of mortgage was filed and recorded on Jan. 25th, 1917. Foreclosure proceedings by advertisement were afterwards instituted upon this mortgage by the Service Company. The notice of mortgage foreclosure sale is dated Jan. 24th, 19x7; therein it describes the mortgagor as John H. Hyllonen, single, instead of John H. Kyllonen, single, as described and signed in the mortgage. This notice recites that the assignment of the mortgage was filed for record on January 25th, 1917. It otherwise correctly describes the mortgagee, the date of the mortgage, the date of its filing in the office of the Register of Deeds, and the book and page therein where it was recorded. It fixed the date of foreclosure upon March 19th, 1917. This notice of foreclosure sale was published in a newspaper for six successive weeks commencing on February 9th, 1917 and ending March 17th, 1917 without any change. On January 29th, 1917, the attorneys affidavit was filed for record correctly reciting the name of the plaintiff as mortgagor. O'n March 17th, 1917 sheriffs certificate was issued upon the foreclosure sale had to the Service Company wherein the name of the mortgagor was described correctly as stated in the mortgage.
The affidavit of registered mailing by the Register of Deeds of a copy of the printer’s affidavit of the publication of the foreclosure notice (as contained in the abstract stipulated in the record) is dated March 27, 1917, and recites the correct name of the plaintiff. However, in the copy of this affidavit (Exhibit F) offered in evidence, the name of the mortgagor is stated as in the notice of sale. In evidence was offered the record of a registered letter through the post office department which shows That on March 27th, a registered letter was sent to the plaintiff, John H. Kyllonen and was signed by the plaintiff. Evidence was further offered that the plaintiff personally signed the registered receipt for such letter and personally received such registered letter. On March .28th, 1917 the Sheriff’s certificate of foreclosure sale was assigned to the defendant Lehr, pursuant to which, on March 25th, 1918, a sheriff’s deed was issued for the land involved.
The statute, Sec. 8080 C X. 1913 does not require the notice of sale to be dated. It sufficiently appears that the assignment of the mortgage was duly filed and recorded at least two weeks prior to any publication of the notice. Manifestly again the date stated in the notice as the date is a clerical error. We are of the opinion that the foreclosure sale was not invalid upon the contentions made by the plaintiff.
The judgment is affirmed.
