This afternoon Dad says he's going over to your ranch. I don't know what for, do you? I do wish people didn't have to lose their property. Why are mortgages, anyhow?" "Blamed if I know, Angy! Thanks, Mrs. Quinn." "Sure, an' you're welcome, me boy." Angela had gone out on the step. The old Irishwoman saw her chance. "For the love o' Mike, 'Red, woo her, an' woo her hard!
Many stories of the now all-powerful Jethro William heard from the little coterie which made their headquarters in his store stories of how those methods of which we have read were gradually spread over other towns and other counties. Not that Jethro held mortgages in these towns and counties, but the local lieutenants did, and bowed to him as an overlord.
Great indignation was expressed against the man who had risked the fortune of his family in speculation. Oh! the thing had been going on for a long while. His fortune had been gradually melting away; Grandchaux was loaded down with mortgages and would bring almost nothing at a forced sale.
If he deposits it in a bank or purchases stocks, bonds, mortgages, or other personal property, the law again says part of it shall be hers, if she survives him, and he has not disposed of it while living, as he has a legal right to do. In either case, she cannot control a single dollar during the life of her husband, if he chooses to deprive her of that privilege.
Here was the attitude of the hour; and I am glad to find it clearly set forth in a despatch of Sewall's, June 18th, 1888, when he commends the law against mortgages, and goes on: "Whether the author of this law will carry out the good intentions which he professes whether he will be allowed to do so, if he desires, against the opposition of those who placed him in power and protect him in the possession of it may well be doubted."
Louis rebels who, however, are gallant and noble though misguided men; canny David Ritchie in The Crossing leads the frontiersmen of Kentucky as the little child of fable leads the lion and the lamb; crafty Jethro Bass in Coniston, though a village boss with a pocketful of mortgages and consequently of constituents, surrenders his ugly power at the touch of a maiden's hand.
He had heard Silas and some others discuss the Hunter mortgages, but here was a still more significant evidence. Elizabeth had not signalled him, but the look told the story; in fact, it told more than the girl had intended. "I should consider it a necessary condition of any business I went into," he added steadily.
"Almost everything marked, spotted: property, real and personal; lands, lots, improvements; bonds, stocks, mortgages " "Everything, in short, but franchises?" "Franchises, yes. Nothing left but to turn one's attention to the public utilities " "And to hope that legislation may lag as far behind and as long behind as possible." "Precisely," said Whyland. "Meanwhile, we string our wires "
"How are you, John?" "Why, old man, where on earth have you been?" "I have been in the swamp for many years, but now I touch the ground only in high places." He boldly stepped into the office, and as he sat down the sweep of his coat-tails brushed chattel mortgages and bills of sale from the desk. "Only in high places do my feet touch the ground, John. I have just returned from Kentucky.
Willoughby could do it that's the other man and that he'd come in at the end of the time with a deed for the forest and mortgages on all the surrounding camps." "And Percy agreed?" "He didn't want to. He said it took mentality and physical endurance as well as some courage to play polo. Father said it did on the part of the pony.
