This action was brought by the state on a promissory note executed by defendant Bailey, payable to the Anadarko State Bank, and to foreclose a mortgage on 40 acres of land executed to secure the payment of the note. Bailey purchased the 40 acres of land described in the mortgage from O. M. Hite, and executed the note payable to the bank for the purchase price. Prior to this Hite executed a mortgage to the Pitts-burg Investment Company covering this 40 acres and another tract of 80 acres. The deed from Hite to Éailey was a general warranty, without reference to this prior mortgage. Hite afterward conveyed the 80-acre tract, and at the time of the trial it appears this tract was held by defendant R. C. Mene-fee. The Anadarko State Bank became insolvent, and its assets, including the note and mortgage executed by Bailey, were, taken over by the banking department of the state. Defendant M. F. Menefee became the as-signee of the investment company mortgage, and by cross-petition prayed aforeclosure of this mortgage against the 40-aere tract conveyed to Bailey. Defendant Bailey admitted the execution of the note and mortgage to the bank, and the execution of the investment company mortgage by Hite, his grantor, but denied that he assumed payment of any portion of the investment company mortgage. By cross-petition he asked that the 80-acre tract be first subjected to satisfaction of that mortgage. As a defense against tne state he alleged certain payments on his note, and in addition to these payments asked to be given credit for the full amount due under the investment company mortgage. These credits amounted to more than the amount due on the note held by the state, and he asked for judgment against the state for the excess.
The trial court found that Bailey had made payments on his note amounting to $2,325. The judgment rendered gave him credit for these payments, and also gave him credit for the full amount due M. F. Menefee under the investment company mortgage. This was $200 in excess of the amount due on his note, and judgment was rendered in his favor against the state for that sum. Bailey’s prayer to first subject the 80-acre tract to payment of the investment company mortgage was denied, and judgment rendered in favor of M. F. Menefee, foreclosing his mortgage against the 40-acre tract. From this judgment both the state and Bailey appeal.
.When Hite conveyed the 40-aere tract to Bailey by warranty deed, the 80-acre tract became primarily liable for the debt secured by the investment company mortgage. This burden followed the 80-¿ere tract when subsequently conveyed by Hite, and on foreclosure of this mortgage the tracts should be sold in the inverse order of alienation. 3 Pom. Eq.

As between Bailey and the mortgagee the conveyance amounted to no more than the purchase of the equity of redemption in the 40 acres. But the mere purchase of this equity of redemption did not make Bailev liable personally for the payment of the mortgage debt. It is not contended that Bailey agreed to assume any portion of this mortgage. No personal obligation rests upon the purchaser of mortgaged land to pay the mortgage debt, unless by agreement he assumes its payment, or by retaining the amount out of the purchase price, or otherwise, he clearly makes the debt his own.

The court erred in denying the prayer of Bailey to have the 80-acre tract first subjected to the investment company mortgage. In the event that tract does not sell for sufficient amount to discharge that indebtedness, then the 40-acre tract should be subject, ed to the payment of the deficiency. In that event, as between Bailey and the state, Bailey will be entitled to have credit for any sum he may be required to pay under the investment company mortgage to protect his title.
The bank commissioner took the note subject to all defenses which might have, been interposed against the bank, had it continued under its corporate management and brought the action (Ward v. Okla. St. Bank of Atoka, 51 Okla. 193, 151 Pac. 852; Briscoe v. Hamer, 50 Okla. 281, 150 Pac. 1101) ; therefore Bailey is entitled to credit for all payments made to the bank which should have been applied to this note. There was a conflict in the evidence as to these payments, but it appears the judgment of the trial court in this respect is reasonably supported by the evidence, and under the settled rule of this court applicable to such cases the judgment in this respect will not be disturbed. - ' The credit allowed Bailey of the three payments, amounting to $2,325, will be affirmed; but, in other respects the judgment will be-reversed, and the cause remanded, with directions to. enter judgment for defendant M. F. Menefee, foreclosing the investment company mortgage, but first subjecting the 80-acre -tract to the payment of same; and in the event a sufficient amount is not obtained from that sale to discharge this debt, then the 40-acre tract be sold for that purpose, and a sufficient amount of such proceeds applied to that end. and in that event Bailey to be given credit, in addition to the credit of $2,325, for such deficiency on the note sued on in this action, and the state to have judgment against Bailey for the balance found to be due, if' anything, on said note. In the event the investment company mortgage is discharged by the foreclosure on the 80-acre tract, then the state to have judgment against Bailey for1 the amount due on its note, after allowing the credits of $2,325, and to have a decree foreclosing its mortgage.
