App. 654, 266 S.E. 2d 686 (1980), disc. rev. denied, 301 N.C. 90, --- S.E. 2d --- (1980). The record before us contains no competent evidence to support the judge\u2019s finding that a valid debt exists under the note and deed of trust in question. The record shows without contradiction that the mortgage indebtedness that the substitute trustee seeks to collect in this foreclosure proceeding was paid off in full during the first foreclosure in Randolph County. Thus, this foreclosure is without foundation and the order of the trial judge must be set aside. In re Foreclosure of Connolly v. Potts, 63 N.C. App. 547, 306 S.E. 2d 123 (1983). As to the many questions that may later arise between the parties concerning the property involved, we say nothing. The only question now before us is whether this foreclosure proceeding is well founded, and our holding is that it is not.\nReversed.\nJudges Arnold and Cozort concur.",

Order entered 15 December 1983 in Superior Court, Davidson County. Heard in the Court of Appeals 2 April 1985.\nIn 1979, to secure the payment of a note in the amount of $45,900, Charles Wayne Rollins and wife, appellants here, executed a deed of trust on a 6.88 acre tract of land, part of which lies in Davidson County and part in Randolph County. The deed of trust directs that any foreclosure sale be conducted \u201cat the usual and customary place for such sales at the Courthouse in Davidson and Randolph County.\u201d Sometime after the documents were executed they were assigned to the appellee, Bankers Mortgage Corporation, which substituted J. William Anderson as trustee. In September 1981, the note was in default and the substitute trustee began foreclosure proceedings in Randolph County only. After a hearing the Randolph County Clerk of Superior Court authorized the foreclosure sale, which was conducted in due course at the Randolph County Courthouse, where Bankers Mortgage Corporation was the last and highest bidder in the amount of $51,920. Thereafter, the bid was assigned to the Veterans Administration, the bid proceeds were applied to and paid off the mortgage debt in full, the trustee deeded the property to the Veterans Administration, and the proceeding was concluded in due course with the court auditing and approving the substitute trustee\u2019s final report and account on 15 December 1981. In July 1983, after various transactions and proceedings irrelevant to this appeal, the substitute trustee, at Bankers Mortgage Corporation\u2019s behest, began this proceeding in Davidson County to foreclose on the same land under the authority of the same deed of trust. After a hearing the Clerk of Superior Court of Davidson County found that the debt secured by the deed of trust had been satisfied by a prior foreclosure, concluded that \u201cthere is no valid debt of which the party seeking to foreclose is the holder,\u201d and ordered that the attempted foreclosure cease. On appeal to the Superior Court Judge it was found that a \u201cvalid debt exists as evidenced by the Deed of Trust Note dated 25 April 1979,\u201d and the substitute trustee was authorized to proceed with foreclosure. From this order the respondents Rollins appealed.\nClarence Mattocks for respondent appellants.\nWhitley & Spach, by John B. Whitley, for appellee Bankers Mortgage Corporation."
