The application of the mortgagee (appellant-defendant)is, in substance, not for compelling the mortgagor, (respondent-plaintiff) to take delivery of. the mortgaged property from the appellant but for the issue of a cheque in favour of the appellant for the amount deposited in Court, by the respondent.
