Bay did not request, nor did the Stewarts grant, a partial release of the liens on the three
lots.
	In 1989, the Stewarts assigned to Vineyard Bay their interest in the two Stewart
notes.  That is, Vineyard Bay, the primary obligor on the Stewart notes, became the holder of
those notes.  Subsequently, the Partnership asked Vineyard Bay, now standing in the shoes of the
Stewarts, to release the liens on the three lots.  Vineyard Bay responded that it would release the
liens only when the Partnership paid $76,686.36, representing the $51,815.12 alleged
"deficiency" between the proceeds the Stewarts received from Vineyard Bay's sale of the
Partnership's promissory note and the amount required to secure a partial release at that time, plus
accrued interest of $24,871.26.  The Partnership answered that it owed no moneysecurity interest in the notes receivable.  We hold that the assumption agreement was
fully complied with once Vineyard Bay sold its note and transferred its security interest in the lot
owners' three notes receivable.
	Although Vineyard Bay assumed the Partnership's indebtedness on the Stewart

assumption agreement all required the Partnership to pay to Vineyard Bay, and Vineyard Bay in

lots.  The assumption agreement memorializes the
