The opinion

BaRNHill, J.

The appellant contends that it was error for the court

to

enter judgment absolute on the

sci. fa.

until such

sci. fa.

had been served on the principal and that, therefore, the judgment pronounced is voidable and unenforceable. The question thus sought to be presented is decided by this Court in

Bond Co. v. Krider, ante,

361. The decision in that case is controlling. As the defendant Brown was permitted t0‘ remain at large under the bond until the second Monday of the court, his failure to appear constitutes a forfeiture thereof.

S. v. Staley,

200 N. C., 385 , 157 S. E., 25 .

Affirmed.
