said court shall seem proper; and to appoint by said

trust, as is usual in the case of the sale of mortgaged
premises; and the said trustee or trustees may sell
the same agreeably to the terms of the said decree ;
but before each sale the mortgagee or mortgagees, or
some of the mortgagees, or the executor or adminis-
trator of a deceased mortgagee, or the assignee or
assignees of the mortgage, or one of such assignees,
or the executor or administrator of a deceased as-
signee, shall file in the court in which the said pro-
ceedings are pending, a statement of the amount of
the said mortgage claim remaining due, verifying the
same by the oath or affirmation of the party filing
the same ; and the said affidavit or affirmation may
be made before any of the persons mentioned in sec-
tion seven hundred and eighty-three of this article,
or before any person named as proper to take a like
affidavit by the act of eighteen hundred and sixty-
one; chapter seventy-six, and the same shall be
authenticated as provided for in said last named act.
