Syllabus

<p>1. Limitation.— A suit brought on a promissory note before the bar of limitation was complete will inure to the benefit of an intervenor interested in the recovery, who intervened in the action after the expiration of the four years from the time when the statute began to run.</p> <p>2. Same.— That a mortgage was not set up and foreclosure asked until the expiration of four years from the maturity of the note which it was given to secure, will not avail under a plea of limitation to prevent foreclosure, if suit was brought on the note before the bar as to it was complete.</p>
