Thomas v. Blair

McCLELLAN, j.

Upon the wife of a mortgagor there is conferred the right to redeem. Code, § 5746. The complainant is so entitled unless she has forfeited the right to avail of the privilege. The debtor, mortgagor, or “any one holding under him by privity of title” must deliver possession to tbe purchaser within 10 days after the foreclosure sale “on written demand of the purchaser or his vendee.” Code, § 5747. There is no “privity of title” between husband and wife with respect to lands owned by the living husband. Dower inchoate is not title.' It is a mere expectancy. 5 Mich. Ala. Dig. p. 215.…
