Maxwell afterwards moved to North Carolina and became indebted to tbe plaintiff on a promissory note. Tbe plaintiff brought suit on the note and attached the car in Buncombe County. The only question is whether the plaintiff\u2019s claim has precedence over that of the intervener. The trial judge held that upon the agreed facts the plaintiff\u2019s claim has priority. In our opinion this conclusion is free from error, and the judgment is\nAffirmed.",
