Syllabus

<p>Change of Place of Tbial—Fobeclosube of Mobtoage—Convenience of Witnesses—Disobetion—Appeal.— In an action to foreclose a mortgage upon lands situated partly in two counties, where the affidavits on the part of the defendants established clearly that the convenience of witnesses would be promoted by a change of the place of trial to the' other county in which the suit might properly have been brought, and the record discloses no reason or sufficient showing to the contrary, an order denying the motion of the defendants for such change cannot be justified upon the ground that the granting of such orders is in the discretion of the court, and it will be reversed upon appeal.</p>
