For this reason, there was no error in allowing defendant\u2019s motion for judgment as of nonsuit at the close of all the evidence, or in the judgment dismissing the action. See King v. Thackers, Inc., 207 N. C., 869, 178 S. E., 95; Clark v. Drug Co., 204 N. C., 628, 169 S. E., 217; Davis v. Jeffreys, 197 N. C., 712, 150 S. E., 488.\nThe judgment is\nAffirmed.",
