Early R. WILSON, Administrator of the Estate of Buddy Ross Wilson, Deceased, v. Lawrence LAWSON.

Supreme Court of North Carolina.

April 13, 1966.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Haywood, Denny & Miller, by George W. Miller, Jr., James H. Johnson, III, Durham, Donald J. Dorey, Roxboro, for plaintiff appellee.

Charles B. Wood, Roxboro, for defendant appellant.

PER CURIAM:

The pleadings raise issues of negligence, contributory negligence, and damages. The evidence was sufficient to support the issues of defendant's negligence and the damages to the intestate's estate.

No error.
