The mortgage by any telegraph company, to secure its bonds or other evidences of indebtedness, of all or any part of its lines, appliances, machines or machinery, whether owned by it at the date of such mortgage, or thereafter to be acquired by it, or both, shall be valid and effectual as respects all the property therein included and may be foreclosed in the same manner as mortgages of real estate; and the record thereof in the office of the Secretary of the State shall be a sufficient record and notice to protect the title under the mortgage, notwithstanding such company may remain in possession of all or any part of the mortgaged property.
