72 N.C. 218 | N.C. | 1875
This case is governed by the decision of this Court in Bryan v. Walker,
The impressment of the buggy by order of the defendant, in obedience to the command of Gen. Kirkland, being justified by the emergency, the evidence fails to bring home to the defendant any notice of the order of Gen. Hoke for its restoration to the plaintiff. He is therefore not affected by the disobedience and insubordination of others. The jury has found *221 that the defendant had no notice of the countermanding order of Gen. Hoke, and that he did not refuse the buggy.
The charge of his Honor was correct in law; and this verdict of the jury in favor of the defendant, upon all the issues, conclude the parties.
There is no error.
PER CURIAM. Judgment affirmed.
