The defendant, having sold these premises, under a power of sale contained in a fourth mortgage, the plaintiff in this bill prays to have the sale declared null and void, and to be allowed to redeem the mortgage. At the time of the sale, the premises were subject to six mortgages; the fourth, fifth, and sixth being held by the defendant. The fourth mortgage recited the amounts of the prior mortgages; and no question is made that the notice of sale was in conformity to the terms of the power therein contained. The only question presented relates to the validity of the. sale itself.
