whose favor a judgment was rendered, declares that he has been satisfied and
paid.
2. In Alabama, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, New
Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and, Vermont,
provision is made by statute, requiring the mortgagee to discharge a
mortgage upon the record, by entering satisfaction in the margin. The
refusal or neglect to enter satisfaction after payment and demand, renders
the mortgagee liable to an action, after the time given him by the
respective statutes for doing the same has elapsed, and subjects him to the
payment of damages, and, in some cases, treble costs. In Indiana and New
York, the register or recorder of deeds may himself discharge the mortgage
upon the record on the exhibition of a certificate of payment and
satisfaction signed by the mortgagee or his representatives, and attached to
the mortgage, which shall be recorded. Ind. St. 1836, 64; 1 N. Y. Rev. St.
761.
