Statement of tlie Case.

Bill for foreclosure by William E. Mason, executor, against Susan Kobliska and others, alleging as a ground for declaring the whole indebtedness due that taxes legally levied were not paid and that the premises were sold for said taxes, and that there had been no redemption from the sale. The usual form of a foreclosure decree was entered upon a master’s report recommending such decree, and James H. Hooper and Ona A. Hooper appealed.

James H. Hooper, pro se.

A. G. Dicus, for appellant Ona A. Hooper.

Charles E. Pope, for appellee.

Mr. Justice Smith

delivered the opinion of the court.

*1792. Mortgages, § 394*—what is sufficient election to declare whole-debt due. The determination of a holder of notes to file a bill for the foreclosure of a trust deed for the entire indebtedness, and the preparation and filing of such bill, is a sufficient election to declare the whole sum due, and to entitle him to maintain the bill.
