A foundation built on sand?

I had the pleasure to inspect this house a few weeks ago for a fabulous client.

It was built in 1902 and has been remodeled several times over the years.

Of the many issue the house had, one of the most interesting was a problem with the mortar between the bricks in the pier foundation. The mortar was turning back into sand.

Several of the piers had actually failed due to this condition. Have you seen this before?
