Interest of Heirs in 
Mortgage 
Where wife dies leaving husband, 
mother and brothers, no children living 
or dead, and neither party married be¬ 
fore, who would hold her property which 
consists of a $600 interest in a first mort¬ 
gage of $2,500 on husband's farm and 
second mortgage of $300 on same farm? 
If mother of deceased wife has to fore¬ 
close on this first mortgage to get her 
share ($1,900) how does it work out? 
Would she have to foreclose the whole 
mortgage and if so, and there was a de¬ 
ficiency, would each lose (mother and 
daughters estate) in proportion to their 
amounts in mortgage? In case it was 
sold to or bid in by the mother at say 
50 cents on the dollar, would she have 
to pay' that amount, $300. on the daugh¬ 
ter’s share to her daughter’s estate in 
addition to her $1,900 already invested in 
mortgage? All located in New York 
State. r. e. G. 
New York. 
One-half belongs to the husband and 
the one-half not distributed to the hus¬ 
band shall be distributed in equal shares 
to her mother and brothers. We are un¬ 
able to answer the second question for 
the reason we do not know the provisions 
of the mortgage. If the mortgage stands 
entirely in the name of the mother, she 
of course may foreclose the whole mort¬ 
gage, and if the property does not sell 
for enough to pay the second mortgage the 
holder of the second mortgage gets noth¬ 
ing. If the mortgage provides the amount 
of interest which each has in the first 
mortgage each would lose pro-rata in case 
the property did not sell for enough to 
pay the first mortgage. n. t. 
Driving Cattle Along 
Highway 
A rents a large pasture about three- 
fourths of a mile from his home farm. 
Has he a right to drive his cattle along 
the public highway twice daily for the 
purpose of reaching this pasture? B and 
C refuse to build certain road fences to 
protect their farms against A’s cattle, but 
claim that A must build and maintain the 
road fence. IIow far must this fence be 
from the center of the highway? A has 
strung a strand of barbed wire along B’s 
farm, B himself making the holes for the 
stakes. Some of the stakes are way up 
on the road grade. If anyone should get 
hurt in this fence can they collect dam¬ 
ages from A? A has B’s permission to 
use barbed wire. B claims that A must 
not even let his cows eat the grass on the 
road side of the fence. Can B compel A 
to do this? C says that A must keep his 
cows off a certain piece of land, but re¬ 
fuses to let A build a fence for this pur¬ 
pose. What can A do? Can C collect 
damages if A’s cows get on his land? 
Can D compel A to build a fence along 
his farm because he built one along B’s 
and C’s? w. E. d. 
New York. 
We are unable to give you the distance 
from the center of the road that a high¬ 
way fence must be constructed, for the 
reason that highways vary in width. Some 
are three rods and some are four rode. 
The beaten track might not be in the cen¬ 
ter of the right of way. There are usually 
old monuments, such as trees, etc., indi¬ 
cating where the highway ends. 
Barbed wire must not be used along a 
highway. 
The owner of cattle has a right to drive 
the cattle along the highway to and from 
pasture, and he must use reasonable care 
to keep them from trespassing on lands 
adjoining the highway. If they inad¬ 
vertently stray upon lands adjoning the 
highway it is his duty to drive them off 
as soon as possible. He is not bound to 
fence his neighbors’ land to protect it 
from the highway. If this were true a 
stock buyer would have to fence the en¬ 
tire county. n. t.
