        "text": "Per Curiam.\nThe movant S. T. Anderson, a creditor of the defendant, Tar River Lumber Company, moved to set aside so much of an order heretofore entered in the receivership of the defendant Lumber Company as allowed the claim of the W. L. Groom estate, on the ground that the order in this respect was irregular. Questions relating to the receivership of defendant Lumber Company, in so far as they involved the dis-allowance of the Hanes claim, were considered by this Court at Spring Term, 1942 (221 N. C., 89). The movant S. T. Anderson alleges that the Groom claim was invalid, was improperly allowed, and that this claim is so large that if the allowance stands movant\u2019s claim cannot be paid in full.\nThe matter was heard below and judgment rendered denying the motion. This ruling was based on numerous findings of fact. Upon examination of these, however, it appears that in some instances supporting evidence is' lacking, or the finding is not in accord with the record. Questions arise whether the receivers and the Groom estate are jointly resisting the motion; whether the movant\u2019s evidence does not show a meritorious defense to the Groom claim; whether the affidavit of the former attorney of movant was considered against him by the court (Guy v. Bank, 206 N. C., 322, 173 S. E., 600); whether the alleged agreement between movant and the representatives of the Groom estate was approved by the Court, and whether such an agreement was available to the receivers in support of the validity of the Groom claim, and as a defense to Anderson\u2019s motion.\nUnder the circumstances, we think the judgment appealed from should be vacated and the cause remanded to the Superior Court for further consideration of the matters involved in Anderson\u2019s motion, and it is so ordered.\nError and remanded.\nBabNhill, J., dissents.",
