*130Abstract of the Decision.

1. Mortgages, § 635 * —when deficiency decree may direct a Men on rents and profits. Where by the terms of a trust deed the rents and profits of the land as well as the land were pledged for the security and payment of the indebtedness, the court in a foreclosure proceeding may, in a deficiency decree, direct that complainant have a lien for the deficiency upon the rents and profits arising from the premises until the expiration of the period of redemption.

2. Mortgages, § 650*—when deficiency decree cannot he attacked on appeal. On appeal from an order denying a petition by an assignee of the mortgagor to have certain moneys collected by a receiver from the rents and profits of the land up to the time of expiration of the period for redemption from the foreclosure sale paid over to him, held that the petitioner could not attack the validity of a deficiency decree on the ground that there was no personal service on the mortgagor, for the reason that the validity of the order appealed from did not depend upon that portion of the deficiency decree of which petitioner complains, and also for the further reason that the appeal was not taken from the deficiency decree.
