“ Every Man is presumed to know the 
Law. Nine-tenths of all Litigation arises 
from Ignorance of Law.” 
COLLECTING A JUDGMENT ON A MORT¬ 
GAGED FARM. 
"An Old Subscriber," Monroe County, 
N. Y. —A, a neighboring farmer, owes me 
a considerable amount of money, on which 
he failed to pay interest, as per agreement, 
and I couldn’t get him to pay the principal 
either. I sued him and a short time ago 
obtained judgment. His farm, however, is 
already encumbered with mortgages and 
judgments procured prior to mine, to an 
amount nearly equal to its full value. Can 
I, on my judgment, sell A’s remaining in¬ 
terest in the property, and in case it is 
struck off to me, when can I come into pos¬ 
session ? If I can’t get any money out of 
the property, I would at any rate like to 
get A dispossessed. Can I do so ? 
Ans.—I f the judgment obtained by our 
inquirer was not rendered by a justice of 
the peace for less than $25, it may be 
docketed in the office of the County Clerk, 
when it will become a lien upon the real 
estate of the defendant. An execution 
may be obtained, and after the sale has 
been advertised for six consecutive weeks, 
the property may be sold. The purchaser 
will take it subject to all prior liens. He 
may then, by summary proceedings, ob¬ 
tain possession in about two weeks. He 
must first give A 10 days’ notice to quit. 
If he fails to leave, a precept will be issued 
returnable in not less than three or more 
than five days, when A will be required im¬ 
mediately to show cause why he should not 
be deprived of his possession. On his fail¬ 
ure to do so, he will be ejected. Unless 
our inquirer becomes the purchaser of the 
property, or gets a friend to buy it for him, 
we know of no means by which he can dis¬ 
possess A. 
WHEN LEGACIES ARE PATABLE IN NEW 
YORK. 
L. M. T., Livingston, N. Y. —Should an 
executor pay legacies one year after pro¬ 
bate of a will or one year after the death of 
the testator? In the case in which lam 
interested the will was contested and let¬ 
ters were not issued to the executors until 
the will was sustained many months after 
the testator’s death. 
Ans.—T he law in this State provides 
that “ no legacies shall be paid by any exec¬ 
utor or administrator until after the ex¬ 
piration of one year from the time of 
granting letters testamentary or of admin¬ 
istration, unless the same are directed by 
the will to be sooner paid.” The general 
rule is that legacies draw interest from the 
time they are payable. If, however, the 
legacy is given by a parent to a child and 
no provision is made for its maintenance 
other than the income from the legacy ; or 
if it is a life-estate to a child, or to a widow 
in lieu of dower, the interest is payable 
from the day of death. When an annuity 
is bequeathed generally ; that is, where a 
sum of money is bequeathed to be put out at 
interest and the income to be paid over, 
the legatee is entitled to interest from 
death, provided a sufficient amount re¬ 
mains after paying debts and other legacies. 
Unless the case in which our inquirer is 
interested comes under one of these condi¬ 
tions, the legacy cannot be paid until the 
expiration of a year from the issue of 
testamentary letters, however long this 
may have been delayed ; and interest can 
be drawn only from that time. 
CATALOGUES, ETC., RECEIVED. 
C LARK’S CUTAWAY HARROW.- 
Circulars from the Higganum Manu¬ 
facturing Corporation, New York. The R. 
N.-Y. has this implement in use and does 
not hesitate to praise it. Strictly speaking, 
it is more of a plow than a harrow. We 
have found it very useful in cutting up 
sod ground and working in manure. 
Invalid Rolling - Chairs. — Catalogue 
from H. S. Golightly, 203 Quarry Street, 
Philadelphia, Pa. The catalogue is filled 
with pictures of invalid chairs which seem 
to be very comfortable and easy to wheel. 
We feel sorry to think such chairs are ever 
needed, still let us get the best we can when 
they must be bought. 
Purinton’s Farm Boiler.— Circulars 
from J. K. "Purinton & Co., Des Moines, 
Iowa. Our readers will remember the 
series of letters on “ Cooking Feed ” which 
were printed in the R. N.-Y. some six 
weeks ago. The parties contributing to 
that “ symposium ” used the Purinton 
boiler. They stated all that needs to be 
said about it here. We may add, however, 
that it is frequently used in laundries and 
bath-rooms for heating water for washing 
and bathing purposes. Send for the cir¬ 
culars. 
Poultry Supplies.— Price list from C. 
H. Dempwolf & Co., York, Pa. These sup¬ 
plies comprise bone meal, granulated bone, 
crushed oyster shells, ground shells, cal- 
cite, crushed flint and ground beef-scraps. 
The goods are all first-class, and poultry 
people who need such supplies may feel 
satisfied that they will get what they order 
from this firm. 
Watch Catalogue.— Pamphlet from H. 
R. Hardenbrook, 58 Liberty Street, New 
York. This pamphlet gives illustrations 
and descriptions of over 1,000 watches, which 
are offered at very reasonable rates. 
Agricultural Supplies. — Circulars 
from H. B. Griffings’ Sons & Co., 70 Cort¬ 
land Street, New York. At this old-estab¬ 
lished house will be found tools of all sorts 
at fair prices. 
“ Myself.”— This is the title of a beauti- 
tiful 26-page book issued by James Vick, 
Rochester, N. Y. It is a poem describing 
the life of a little country girl who loves 
Nature and grows up to young-womanhood 
in an entirely natural manner. The book 
abounds with pictures which are printed 
in colors. It is intended as a souvenir to 
be given to subscribers to Vick’s Monthly 
Magazine for 1S90. 
D. Landreth & Sons, Philadelphia, 
Pa.—A large-sized, illustrated catalogue of 
specialties in vegetable garden seeds for 
1890. This firm is headquarters for the 
Garfield and State of Maine Potatoes, both 
excellent varieties. The above firm is the 
oldest and one of the most trustworthy in 
the country. 
Knabe PIANOS. —Circulars from William 
Knabe & Company, Baltimore, Md. It ap¬ 
pears that Dr. Hans Von Bulow, the cele¬ 
brated pianist is using the Knabe pianos 
on his present concert tour in this country. 
He finds them superior to other makers’. 
A great many moreihumble musicians than 
Dr. Von Bulow have come to the same 
conclusion. • 
The Cooley Creamer.— Catalogue from 
the Vermont Farm Machine Company, 
Bellows Falls, Vermont. Anybody who 
knows what improved dairying is can tell 
about the merits of the Cooley system. It is 
merely necessary for us to direct attention 
to the headquarters for the Cooley imple¬ 
ments and to state that all classes of dairy 
goods are also to be obtained there. 
Sun and Shade.— From the Photo-Grav¬ 
ure Company 3d Avenue, and 10th Street 
Brooklyn, N. Y. This monthly publica¬ 
tion improves with age. Each number 
seems more artistic than the one before it. 
We know of nothing in the way of art work 
that excels this publication.
