Findings of Fact — Married Women.' — Where the Circuit Judge finds from the -written testimony submitted to him that a mortgage given by a married woman in 1887? was given by her to secure a debt due by her husband for money borrowed and used by him, and that he was not her agent, and such findings not being without evidence to support them, or manifestly against its weight, the mortgage was properly held to be void.</p> <p>2. Mortgage — Power of Sale — Married Women. — While a power of sale in a mortgage cannot be revoked by the mortgagor, as it is part of the security, it is revocable by a married woman during her lifetime, where the mortgage itself is void as a security for want of legal power in the mortgagor to execute the mortgage.</p> <p>3.
