APPEAL by defendants from Stack, J., at October Term, 1931, of MADISON.

Carl Stuart and Johnson, Smathers Rollins for plaintiffs.

John A. Hendricks for defendants.


Civil action for trespass, converted into an action in ejectment upon defendants' plea of ownership, sole seizin and possession.

We have discovered no reversible error on the record. It is admitted that plaintiffs and defendants claim title from a common source. His Honor was of opinion that of the two titles shown, the plaintiffs had the better, and so instructed the jury. Mobley v. Griffin, 104 N.C. 112, 10 S.E. 142. In this, we find

No error.
