It was the duty of the defendant to docket his appeal at that term. This he failed to do, and there was no petition for certiorari. Docketing for hearing at this term comes too late. Hence the appeal must be dismissed on authority of Jones v. Jones, 232 N.C. 518, 61 S.E. 2d 335, and cases therein cited.\nSince the exceptive assignments of error relied on by defendant are not of sufficient merit to require a new trial, the result in effect is the same.\nAppeal dismissed.",
