Supreme Court of New Hampshire June 5, 1882 (Drew v. Morrill)

Allen J.

Land, of which the defendant had a mortgage, was sold for taxes to the plaintiff’s grantor. The time for redemption from the tax sale having elapsed, and the plaintiff being in possession under a title derived from the collector’s sale, the defendant entered the premises claiming title by virtue of a mortgage, which is the trespass complained of in this suit.
