Appeal and Error K c—
Where it appears from the record that the Court made an error in calculating the amount recoverable by plaintiff a petition to rehear will he granted and the error corrected.
Petition to rehear.
I. C. Wright for plaintiff.
C. E. McCullen and Bryan & Campbell for Board of Education.

Opinion:
BhogueN, J.
The cause was considered in Fidelity Co. v. Board of Education, 202 N. C., 354, 162 S. E., 763. The petition to rehear as- sei'ts that the writer of the opinion made an error of calculation in assuming that the amount of retained percentage in controversy was $4,375.20, whereas in fact the retained percentage based upon the contract price, would amount to $7,442.70. A reexamination of the record discloses that the contention of the plaintiff is correct and that such error was made. The plaintiff is therefore entitled to recover the sum of $4,375.20, and it is so adjudged.
Petition allowed.
