Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The proper parties weré hot before the court below. — The suit should have been against the devisees of the land mortgaged, and not the executors ;(a) and not having been so, the decree is erroneous, and must, for that, be reversed with costs ; and the cause remanded to the court below, to be again proceeded in, after making the proper parties.
