Stacy, C. J.,
dissenting: As no period of limitation is mentioned in the charter of the city of Statesville (the idea of perpetuity not being accepted), it would seem that, under Morganton v. Avery, 179 N. C., 551, 103 S. E., 138, all the installments were barred by the three-year statute of limitations when chapter 331, Public Laws 1929, was enacted by the Legislature. Hence the plaintiff is in.no position to complain at the holding that seven installments are barred under the 1929 statute, and three not.
BbogdeN, J., concurs in dissent.
