It will appear from the above that there have begn 153 more deeds than real estate mortgages, which means that 152 sales of land in McHenry county haVe been made on a cash basis, and also the fact that 103 releases have been entered since that time, showing that as between mortgages and releases the result is a tie. Chattel mortgages are quite numerous for the reason that tenants are compelled to furnish security to the land owner. Very few judgment notes are being entered up now.
