Owen and Alice signed a contract for the sale of Lot 1. Because of a scrivener's error, the deed described Lot 2, and neither Owen nor Alice noticed. Alice recorded the deed. She then borrowed money from Bank, giving Bank a mortgage on Lot 2. Bank's loan officer did not know of the mistake; a title search showed Alice as the record owner of Lot 2 and revealed no exceptions. Owen later discovered the error and sued to reform the deed to describe Lot 1 and to cancel Bank's mortgage. Under Section 9, what is the result as to Bank's mortgage?
