and of sale, including the payment of reasonable attorney's fees

actually incurred; and

2. Unless otherwise required by law, to the payment of the

contract or indebtedness secured by the mortgage, the payment of all

other obligations provided in or secured by the mortgage, and the

obligations of any junior lienholders or encumbrancers, in order of

their priority as otherwise provided for by law. After payment in

with a legal description of the property whose sale produced the

proceeds, the mortgagee shall be discharged from all responsibility

for acts performed in good faith according to the provisions of this

act, and the clerk shall deposit the amount with the county

treasurer subject to order of the district court in the county upon

the application, by civil action, of any interested party.
