110 N.C. 249 (N.C. 1892)

Opinion

(February Term, 1892)

MOTION by defendants, heirs at law and the administrator of Stephen M. Houston, to set aside an award, the judgment confirming the same, the sale and report thereof in accordance with said judgment, all of which proceedings were had in this action, heard at February Term, 1891, of DUPLIN. McIver, J., presiding.

The facts were found by the court, and thereupon it refused to grant the motion, and defendants appealed.

W. R. Allen for plaintiff.

H. L. Stevens for defendants.


An opinion will not be filed when it can serve no useful purpose.


We have examined with much care the record in this case, and the points presented and argued by counsel have been fully considered. As the principles involved have been often decided by this Court, and no useful purpose can be served by an opinion applying them to the particular facts of this case, it is sufficient to say that we think there was no error in the ruling of the court below, and that the judgment should be

Affirmed.
