1Opinion of the CourtEmery, J.

The story is this. Mr. and Mrs. Leighton on Dec. 16, 1897, mortgaged certain personal property to the respondents, Chandler and Wass, as security for their surety-ship upon certain notes of the Leightons given to a Machias Bank. The property consisted of a building used as a blueberry canning factory, and its various contents of tin, tools, cans, machinery, etc. The mortgage was in the usual form of a chattel mortgage bill of sale, conditioned to become void if the Leightons paid the described notes on or before Dec. 15, 1898, and it was recorded in the town where the Leightons resided.
