At the February Term, 1935, Granville Superior Court, the defendant herein, Dortch Waller, was tried upon indictment charging him with the murder of one John Harris, which resulted in a conviction of murder in the first degree and sentence of death. From the judgment thus entered the defendant gave notice of appeal to the Supreme Court. The case on appeal was prepared and settled by agreement of counsel. It contains only two exceptions, and no assignments of error. Counsel evidently concluded, upon reflection and after sifting the exceptions taken on the trial, that no error had been committed in the case. The motions to nonsuit were properly overruled. At the *352 close of all the evidence tbe defendant tendered a plea of guilty of murder in the second degree, which was rejected by the State.

No brief has been filed by either side, and the Attorney-General has lodged a motion to dismiss the appeal. S. v. Hooker, 207 N. C., 648. As no error appears on the face of the record, the motion must be allowed. S. v. Etheridge, 207 N. C., 801; S. v. Watson, ante, 70.

Appeal dismissed.
