Ward v. Munson
Michigan Supreme Court
Appeal from Kent. (Grove, J.) Bill to remove a cloud from complainant’s land. Defendant appeals. The facts are-stated in the opinion.
1Opinion of the CourtLong, J.
Complainants filed this hill to remove a cloud from the title to lot 5, block 6, of Lewis Porter’s addition to the city of Grand Rapids. The claimed cloud upon the title is a mortgage executed by Leander A. Forward to Lewis Porter on June 29, 1870, and recorded July 1, 1870. It appears that Forward, at the time of the execution of this mortgage, was the owner of the lot in question. The title to the lot came to the complainants through several mesne conveyances.
It is claimed:
1. That this mortgage has been paid.
2. That it is barred by the statute of limitations.
January 11, 1881, Lewis Porter…
