Opinion of the Court

Shepherd, J.:

This action should have been brought by an administrator de bonis non. Tulburt v. Hollar, 102 N. C., 407; Merrill v. Merrill, 92 N. C., 657; Hardy v. Mills, 91 N. C., 131; University v. Hughes, 90 N. C., 538.

The demurrer, therefore, should have been sustained.

Error.
