Plaintiff, May 19, 1932, filed a bill against defendants to foreclose a land contract, and for deficiency. Plaintiff had decree of foreclosure and for deficiency against defendant De Clark. From the decree entered, plaintiff appeals, claiming a decree for deficiency against defendants Van Maele. October 1, 1924, William Endert and wife, owners of the property in question, sold it on land contract *Page 562 to Sylvester Onyskow and Peter Soduski. April 22, 1926, Soduski assigned his interest in the contract to Sylvester Onyskow. June 8, 1926, Onyskow and wife assigned their interest in the contract to Albert Van Maele and Mary Van Maele, his wife. January 3, 1931, Van Maele and wife assigned their interest in the land contract to Morris De Clark. February 28, 1925, William Endert and wife sold their interest in the premises to plaintiff. Default having been made in the contract, plaintiff filed this bill.
The assignment from Onyskow and wife to Van Maele and wife was in writing. It assigns the contract:
"together with all sums due and to become due thereon and covenants that there is now owing thereon $10,816.95, with interest from May 28, 1926. Said assignee covenants to perform the obligations of the seller in said contract, the lands therein described having been this day conveyed to the assignee by deed of even date."
When Albert Van Maele and Mary Van Maele assigned the contract to defendant De Clark, the assignment recited there was "a balance owing upon said contract of $8,446.37, with interest from July 1, 1930, which said assignee and grantee assumes and agrees to pay."
The trial court found a decree providing for a deficiency against defendant De Clark. He has not appealed. No decree providing for a deficiency against defendants Van Maele was entered, for the obvious reason there was no assumption and agreement to pay upon their part.
Decree affirmed, with costs to appellees.
