    "head_matter": "PEARL K. ADAMS v. CAROLINA MORTGAGE COMPANY.\n(Filed 9 June, 1937.)\nAppeal by defendant from Hill, Special Judge, at November Term, 1936, of Forsyth.\nThe plaintiff instituted her action to recover the statutory penalty for usury. The material averments of her complaint are these: C. B. Dunnagan and wife, the original borrowers and mortgagors, conveyed the land to R. M. Dunnagan and wife, who thereafter conveyed to the plaintiff, for the purpose of securing grantees\u2019 assistance in making the required installment payments on the loan, with agreement to reconvey. It is alleged the original loan was affected with usury, and that usurious interest was paid by 0. B. Dunnagan and wife, and by the plaintiff, and that it was understood and agreed that plaintiff should have the benefit of any defense or claim on account of usury. Plaintiff paid the balance required by defendant for satisfaction of the loan.\nDefendant answered denying the charge of usury, and pleaded the statute of limitations. No affirmative relief was prayed.\nSubsequently, upon motion of C. B. Dunnagan and wife, they were made parties plaintiff and adopted the complaint. Thereupon, the defendant demurred on the ground of misjoinder of parties and causes of action.\nWhen the cause came on for hearing, the trial judge permitted C. B. Punnagan and wife to take voluntary nonsuit, and, after entering judgment dismissing the case as to them, declined to sustain the demurrer and defendant appealed.\nIngle & Bucher for plaintiff.\nWilliam G. Mordecai and Ratcliff, Hudson & Ferrell for defendant."
