S. v. Wolfe, 227 N.C. 461, 463, 42 S.E. 2d 515. Thus the question of the correctness of the judge\u2019s ruling on the plea in abatement is moot.

The jury found the defendant guilty of the violation of G.S. 20-138.\nFrom a judgment of imprisonment defendant appealed and assigned error.\nII. F. Seawell, Jr., for defendant, appellant.\nAttorney General Seawell and Assistant Attorney General Mc-Galliard for the State."
