hereinafter described to PLAINTIFF which mortgage is recorded in the Office of the
Recorder of CUMBERLAND County, in Mortgage Book No. 1405, Page 727.
The premises subject to said mortgage is described as attached.

mortgage due 2/1/02 and each month thereafter are due and unpaid, and by the terms of
said mortgage, upon failure of mortgagor to make such payments after a date specified by
written notice sent to Mortgagor, the entire principal balance and all interest due thereon
