In paragraph six the defendants alleges the loss of $3819.13 "which i-oss was caused by the negligence or mF of Unnlr " Th1<j complaint is denied. 'By way of new matter and as a I further defense." the defendants call attention to another suit pending: in 1 court growing out of the reorganization of the Peoples Bank, and allege the plaintiff is estopped to maintain the present action. The answer concludes: "That on or aoout the 27 th day of October 11)33, these defendants together with other officers of the Peoples Industrial Bank, submitted a proposed plan of reorganization of j the said bank to the Honorable Gurney P. Hood, commissioner of banks, which said proposed plan of reorganization was approved and accepted by him. That one hundred copies of said proposed plan of reorganization, were filed in the office of the Clerk of the Superior Court on November 1, 1933: that an outline of said plan was pub- ; itshed in the Watauga Democrat for, i four consecutive issues; that copies ; of said plan were mailed to the plaintiff, together with the order of the I commissioner of banks requiring him j; to file protest within thirty days, and that every and all things required by ; the statutes of the state of North Carolina in connection with the re-j organization of said bank were com- i :i d wItli.
