The hill in this case seeks to have the deed made by Richards and wife to George M. Leonard, at the instance and request of Ezra H-. Stewart, declared an equitable mortgage to Leonard, to secure the payment of certain indebtedness o£ Stewart, and to foreclose the same. The circuit court found that said deed was security for the amount due on the $500 note of Stewart to Bichards, but refused to hold that it was security for the indebtedness of Stewart on two other notes given by Stewart to Fellows, and endorsed to Leonard. The appellees, complainants below, make no complaint of this decree.
