April 30, 1913, counsel for plaintiff filed motion to dismiss because the proceeding in error was not begun in this court within six months from the rendition of the judgment or final order complained of. In view of the provisions of chapter 18, p. 35, Sess. Laws 1910-11, wherein it is provided that all proceedings for reversing, vacating, or modifying judgments or final orders shall be commenced within six months from the rendition of the judgment or final order complained of, the motion must be sustained. ¶2 All the Justices concur.
