Because the plaintiffs proved continuous undisturbed possession for more than 20 years, the mortgages were only noted in the Block Crown Lease schedule with no identifiable mortgagee, and proper advertisement and substituted service had been effected, section 19 of the Limitation Ordinance extinguished the mortgages or rendered them incapable of taking effect; accordingly declarations were granted following the precedent of Fung Kam Cheung.
