Opinion

Pee Cueiam.

It appears upon tbe agreed statement of facts that tbe defendant Maxwell bought a Dodge car from tbe intervener on November 30, 1925,' in tbe State of Pennsylvania, and to secure tbe unpaid part of tbe purchase price executed a conditional sales contract which was never recorded in Pennsylvania or in North Carolina. Maxwell afterwards moved to North Carolina and became indebted to tbe plain *502 tiff on a promissory note. Tbe plaintiff brought suit on the note and attached the car in Buncombe County. The only question is whether the plaintiff’s claim has precedence over that of the intervener. The trial judge held that upon the agreed facts the plaintiff’s claim has priority. In our opinion this conclusion is free from error, and the judgment is

Affirmed.
