J.\nThe only question presented by the appeal is the sufficiency of the evidence to establish plaintiff\u2019s ownership of the note in suit, which was admittedly executed by the defendant and delivered to Chandlee Steel and Iron Company, the payee named therein. The evidence shows that the note is negotiable, duly endorsed by the payee, and held by the plaintiff. This made out a prima facie case. Bank v. Rochamora, 193 N. C., 1, 136 S. E., 259; Clark v. Laurel Park Estates, 196 N. C., 624, 146 S. E., 584.\nMoreover, if it be conceded that plaintiff took the note in question after maturity, no equities are pleaded, hence the only question is one of fact, the plaintiff\u2019s alleged ownership of the note. The demurrer to the evidence was properly overruled.\nAffirmed.",
