Tbe judge, upon competent evidence, found facts from wbicb be concluded, first, tbat tbe movant bad failed to show any excusable neglect; and, second, tbat no meritorious defense bad been made to appear. There is nothing on tbe record to warrant a reversal of tbe judgment. Taylor v. Gentry, 192 N. c., 503; cahoon v. Brinkley, 176 N. C., 5; Norton v. McLaurin, 125 N. C., 185.
