1 Neb. 453

Woods v. Shields

Opinion of the Court

The court,

by Miller, J.,

held that the statute of the Territory, regulating the foreclosure of mortgages by a *455sale of the mortgaged premises, did not take away the remedy of strict foreclosure which had existed in the English Chancery. It did not assume to do so. Nor under the provisions of the organic act could it do so.

Order reversed.
