ot course that he has succeeded in connecting unt and Hschieman with the contract It will be seen however upon a reference to the clauses of the contract herein before quoted that' two classes of etaimo'ure mf ntlowed ftrst' those subject to wMch tbe sale and conveyance was made and eecond those which were assumed and agreed to be paM by the grantees and that tbe mortgage in ques tion belongs to the first class via claims subject to which tbe sale and conveyance was made It is therefore upon this latter theory that the de fence must be allowed if at all ouposing then for the sake of tbe argument that the proof connect Hunt aad Kschleman wito tbe transac tions in uestiODf including tho Buffalo agree aaear the ease so far as tbe mortgaged premises in question arc concerned is thi via
