1Opinion of the CourtHooker, J.
Mary A. Damm, aged 69 years, was the owner of an unincumbered life estate in certain premises. She was also owner of the fee of said premises, subject to-a life estate in Amelia Damm, aged 43 years, which in-turn was subject to a mortgage, to which mortgage Mary Damm’s interest in fee was also subject. Mary Damm was in possession, and purchased the mortgage; thereby paying it, to the extent of her liability thereon, as we held when the case was before us. 91 Mich. 424. The question now before us is, what share is chargeable upon the expectant life estate of Amelia Damm?
