District Court, D. Connecticut April 11, 1900, No. 165 (In re Veitch)

TOWNSEND, District Judge.

In this estate was real estate mortgaged for $5,700, which was also subject to tax liens for taxes assessed upon said real estate, amounting to $446.59. These tax liens, by the laws of the state of Connecticut, take precedence of the mortgage. There remains in the hands of the trustee approximately $500 above the expenses of settling the estate.
