Opinion

Judgments reversed on the law and facts, and the counterclaim contained in the [860]*860respondent’s answer is dismissed upon the merits and judgment is hereby directed in favor of appellant and against respondent, individually and as executrix of the last will and testament of Jacob Fromer, deceased, adjudging and decreeing that the bond and mortgage in question be surrendered to appellant, and that the latter be canceled and discharged of record, and that appellant recover of respondent the sum of $149.60, with costs in this court and in the court below. The court reverses that portion of the findings of fact made by the trial court and contained in paragraphs numbered 1, 2 and 3 of the proposed findings of fact submitted by respondent as finds that the bond and mortgage therein mentioned were executed and delivered to Jacob Fromer for the purpose of securing to him the payment of the sum of $4,500.
