R. Co., 121 N. C., 328), but it is respectfully submitted that there was error in that decision, and this case is brought back by appeal to this Court for the purpose of reviewing that decision.\u201d This is the sole point presented.\nNo Court can admit such practice. There must be an end to litigation. The point decided on the former appeal is res judicata in this case between these parties. It was the duty of the Judge below to follow our decision. It would have been judicial insubordination for him not to have done so. We can not adjudge that he was in error in obeying our mandate.\nIf there was error, the remedy was not in applying to the lower Court to disregard and overrule the decision of this Court, and appealing from his refusal to do so. The remedy was solely by application to this Court to correct its own errors, if any, by a rehearing. Wright v. R. Co., at this term; Shoaf v. Frost, 127 N. C., 306; Pretzfelder v. Ins. Co., 123 N. C., 164. In the present case there is, if possible, less defence for the appellant\u2019s action, because, in fact, there was a rehearing on the former appeal, and the opinion (127 N. C., 328) was the deliberate conclusion of the Court after a second hearing. This appeal, if admissible,- would be in effect a second rehearing, and therefore a third hearing in this Court of the same point between the same parties.\nThe judgment below is\nAffirmed.",
