FROM SURRY.
From this statement of facts it appears that the rights of the parties litigant depended upon a question reserved; and that question was submitted to this Court for its decision.

To get clear of this difficulty we can take but one course, and that is to grant a new trial; by which means the question *Page 160 
may be again made, if those concerned think proper. This has been heretofore done. Hatton v. Dew, 4 N.C. 137.
PER CURIAM.                                          New Trial.
