   PER CURIAM.

It is quite apparent that the person served with the summons was in no sense the managing agent of the defendant, and the attempted service was therefore imperfect.

The order appealed from is therefore reversed, with $10 costs and disbursements, and the motion granted, with $10 costs.

INGRAHAM, P. J., dissents.
