be hold not to be within the word of  the statute of limitation and no positive time have be fix on which shall be a  absolute bar to redemption because court of equity have consider that a  mortgagee can be injure if he receive his principal interest and cost though a  mortgagor may if he be oblige to part with his estate for less than its value  but the make up of account after long period of time be very difficult and  attend with great hardship on the mortgagee it have be think reasonable to  establish on a equity in analogy to this statute a period at which prima fancy  the right of redemption shall be presume to be desert by the mortgagor unless  he be capable of produce circumstance to account for his neglect such as  imprisonment infancy coverture or be beyond sea not have abscond which be a  avoid or retard of justice and to preserve a uniformity between the proceed in  court of law and equity twenty year after forfeiture and possession take by  the mortgagee no

and mortgagee within the time limit as above although  there be no bill file will preserve the mortgagors right of redemption atk but  there be a species of contract which partake of the nature of a mortgage  inasmuch as there be a debt due and a estate as a security for the repayment  but differ from it in the circumstance that the rend and profit be to be  receive without account till the principal money be pay off and that there be  no remedy to enforce the payment this be call a Welsh mortgage and imply a  perpetual power of redemption subsist for ever and the mortgagee can compel a  redemption on a foreclosure see pre Ch p wms vern so where there be a express  agreement that the mortgagee shall hold the premise until he be satisfy time  be hold to be no bar to the redemption and this be determine even in a case  where it appear by the plaintiff own show that sixty year be elapse vern but  if after a account take in chancery it appear that the mortgage be satisfy by  perception of profit twenty year before and that the mortgagee have continue  in possession from that time the limitation accord to the above analogy will  run atk and in the case of hartpole v Welsh

mortgage put  it in the power of the mortgagee or his representative to ascertain and limit  the time of redemption by demand the mortgage money which demand it be admit  have be make by W See Powell cap brown in the present case of Conway v  Shrimpton the mortgage be decree to be redeem upon the foot of a account state  previous to the mortgagee enter on the premise notwithstanding he have be in  possession forty year the husband of the heir of the mortgagee have enter into  a agreement with the heir of the mortgagor about seven year before the bill  for redemption come to a hear for the purchase of the equity of redemption for  although for reason sufficient evident in the case the court refuse to decree  a specific performance of that agreement yet it seem to have be consider as a  admission by the mortgagee that at that time he conceive the mortgagor have a  right to redeem which occur within seven year of the time of exhibit the bill  bring this case within the reason of that of white v pigeon tooth where a bill  be demurrer to because it be to be relieve against a mortgage after fortyone  year yet on a promise be prove that the mortgagor shall be at liberty to  redeem after twentyseven year the demurrer be disallow because though fortyone  year have pass since the mortgage yet only fourteen have elapse after the time  agree for redemption see Powell where above

Shrimpton and his wife pray either a specific performance  of the above agreement or that they may be at liberty to redeem the mortgage  the defendant by their answer to this bill insist that after such a length of  possession as from July almost forty year the plaintiff ought not to be let  into a redemption it be impracticable to account for the profit for so many  year pass and as to the agreement they insist that it ought not to be perform  in a court of equity because it be unreasonable not mutual and void by the  statute of fraud and perjury as not be sign by the appellant or any person by  they lawful authorize brown on the that of December this cause after have be  revive upon the death of Mr Shrimpton be hear at the roll when his honour  dismiss the bill as to the performance of the agreement and decree that the  plaintiff shall be at liberty to redeem upon payment of the two principal sum  of pound and pound original lend with interest four those sum and cost and  that the defendant shall account for the profit for the time that they or  those under who they claim have be in possession but the defendant be  dissatisfy with this decree appeal to the Lord chancellor Cowper and the cause  be hear on the that of April his lordship be please to affirm the dismission  of the bill by the master of the roll as to the agreement and decree that the  plaintiff shall redeem on the foot of the account state on the that of January  and on payment of the say two sum of pound S d and pound S d make together  pound S with interest from the say that of January and cost from this decree  the plaintiff appeal e Northey I Pratt and as to the agreement for the  purchase of the equity of redemption it be say that it evident appear by  letter under Mr Shrimpton own hand and other proof in the cause that there be  a solemn fair treaty continue for a year together before the agreement be sign  without the least fraud or circumvention on the part of the appellant that  Shrimpton all the while know the appellant to be infant and that the equity of  redemption be in they and for that reason he agree to give his assistance in  procure a act of parliament for vest it in trustee and if a person of full age  will on valuable consideration contract with infant know they to be so it be  hope that as such contract will be good at law and the party liable to answer  damage there for the breach of it so in equity he shall specifical perform it  for otherwise infant instead of be favour as they always be will be in a worse  condition than person of full age as to the agreement by Cornwallis of January  for make the interest principal it be say that sir kenelm Digby die within  seven month after he have make the mortgage and consequent there can be but  half a year interest then due that Cornwallis by enter on the premise keep  John Digby the heir out of possession and he ought at least to have keep down  the interest that he have no manner of power or capacity either as grantee or  devisee to charge the estate with a shilling more than be strict due and if he  let the interest run in arrear John Digby can not prevent it and therefore  neither he or his heir ought to suffer by it to the degree of pay interest  upon interest at pound per cent and even the like rate of interest for the  mortgagee cost beside the arrear of interest be in some measure the fault of  the mortgagee themselves who may have enter on the premise or bring a bill to  foreclose but brown which to this day they have never do that John Digby be no  party nor even privy or consent to this agreement though he be then of full  age and though he and not Cornwallis be the only person to be affect by it and  it will be high unreasonable if two three person shall without his privity  state such a account and make such a agreement for he as he must at all event  be bind by whether right or wrong that it can brown er p not be pretend  Cornwallis do the least service to Mr Digby by this agreement for he make it  on the that of march and then confess judgement in ejectment with a stay of  execution only to the that of June follow and agree not to receive the  Ladydays rend in the mean time and that the mortgagee interest and cost shall  be make principal and carry interest from the that of January then last and in  July follow he voluntary deliver they possession so that it wall real make  their interest and cost principal from a day seven week pass and let they into  possession at the same time as they be to have and in fact receive all the  rend which become due from that day that this be a transaction so injurious to  Mr Digby so voluntary in Cornwallis there not appear the least necessity for  it and so clandestine in the mortgagee who well know that Cornwallis be only a  trustee and that Digby be the proper person for they to reckon with that  though it can not at so great a distance of time be prove yet it be high to be  suspect that there be a improper understanding between they or else why do not  Cornwallis instead of act in this manner give the mortgagee actual possession  on the that of march which be all they can have ask of he and if it shall once  be allow that trustee may secret and without necessity state such account and  heap interest upon interest it will be of dangerous consequence to many heir  on who these kind of account may be multiply and their estate present consume  for by the same reason it may be do once it may be do annual and it be  contrary both to law and equity that any man shall be bind or injure by the  act of another without his authority on the other side it be insist t powys S  Cowper that a redemption ought not to be grant after such a length of  possession or if it be that it ought to be on the foot of the account state in  January and that the agreement for turn interest into principal ought to stand  that under the conveyance and will of sir kenelm Digby Mr Cornwallis have the  equity of redemption whole vest in himself or in the trustee subject to his  control upon a special trust and confidence and may have sell or otherwise  dispose of the estate as he please be only Accountable to Mr Digby for the  surplus and certain any prudent and reasonable act do by Cornwallis just and  equitable in its nature and not only necessary but beneficial to the estate at  the time will have bind Mr Digby and consequent ought to bind the appellant as  stand in his place that the state the brown mortgagee account and make their  interest principal be not a prejudice but a advantage to the estate for it  prevent the great expense of sheriff poundage and other fee incident to the  take possession and also the charge of assign the mortgage which will  otherwise have happen and it can not be dispute that if the mortgagee have  assign to other person the whole sum pay by the assignee will have carry  interest from the time of payment that the whole sum due for interest and cost  on the that of January be liquidate at pound S and it will be very  unreasonable that this sum shall not carry interest accord to the agreement  when if the money have be pay as it ought it will have produce interest in  another place and as to Mr Shrimpton agreement it be insist that he be draw in  by surprise and at a tavern to make it that it be unreasonable in its nature  be to give pound for the equity of redemption of a estate not sufficient to  pay the mortgage money due thereon by pound that Mr Shrimpton have no power to  enter into any agreement touch his wife estate but if he have yet he have not  leave asset for the performance of it and therefore it be hope that there be  no ground for carry a agreement thus circumstance into a specific execution  and accord after hear counsel on this appeal it be order and adjudge that the  same shall be dismiss and the decree therein complain of affirm jour vol p  brown er p
