Therefore, let a new trial be granted. NOTE. — See Gilkey v. Dickerson, 9 N.C. 341; Banner v. McMurray,11 N.C. 93; S. v. Upton, 12 N.C. 268. So if a point be reserved by the court which does not appear on the transcript, Finch v. Elliott, 11 N.C. 61. So if it appear from the certificate of the Judge that a case was intended to be made up by him, but none comes up with the transcript.Hamilton v. McCulloch, 9 N.C. 29; Anderson v. Hunt, 10 N.C. 244;S. v. Powers, ibid., 376. But see Pickett v. Pickett, 14 N.C. 6;Atkinson v. Clark, ibid., 171; Thomas (138)v.
