Description
This is an appeal from a decree dismissing a Bill in Equity to redeem certain lands and buildings situated in Fort Fairfield, Maine, from an equitable mortgage. On or about December 31, 1923, John R. Devine of Fort Fairfield mortgaged his homestead farm to the Federal Land Bank of Springfield, Massachusetts, and the mortgage not having been paid according to its terms was in due course foreclosed and the statutory period of redemption on August 1, 1937, had expired. On that day he procured the conveyance of the farm to his wife's sister Katherine R. Tierney of Arlington, Massachusetts, who gave the Federal Land Bank mortgages on account of the purchase price, paid the balance out of moneys of which he contributed a part and orally agreed that he should occupy the farm provided he paid the annual insurance premiums and taxes and installments due on the mortgages and that she would convey the property to him when he repaid her advances.
