192 S.E.2d 707 (1972)

16 N.C. App. 491

INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER CREDIT CORPORATION, Plaintiff, v. R. S. RICKS, Original Defendant, v. INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER COMPANY and Wakefield Equipment Company, Third-Party Defendants.

Court of Appeals of North Carolina.

November 22, 1972.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Ervin, Horack & McCartha, by C. Eugene McCartha, Charlotte, for International Harvester Credit Corporation and third-party defendant, International Harvester Co.

Cherry, Cherry & Flythe, by Joseph J. Flythe, and Ernest L. Evans, Ahoskie, for R. S. Ricks, original defendant and third-party plaintiff.


BRITT, Judge.

While there was no finding or admission on the point, it appears that the conditional sale contract involved in this action was executed in Wakefield, Virginia, where Equipment Company's place of business was located. Our courts have held that the interpretation of a contract is governed by the law of the place where the contract was made. Fast v. Gulley, 271 N.C. 208, 155 S.E.2d 507
