Holding
The court held that a complaint to foreclose a mortgage executed by an administratrix under probate court authority was not fatally defective due to the attachment of an unverified copy of the underlying petition, as the court's order authorizing the mortgage—which recited that it was based on a verified petition—was conclusive and could not be collaterally attacked in the foreclosure action.
