The opinion

Show Cause Hearing.

Per Curiam.

In the above-entitled case, pursuant to our opinion heretofore filed, the plaintiff through its attorney appeared to show cause why the case should not be remitted to the superior court with direction to enter judgment for the defendant.

Upon consideration, we are of the opinion that no sufficient cause has been shown to change our conclusion, and the case is remitted to the superior court for entry of judgment for the defendant in accordance with our original opinion.
