In Tise v. Whitaker-Harvey Co., 144 N. C., 510, it is said: “It is a rule with us that in actions of this character, the main purpose of which is to obtain a permanent injunction, if the evidence raises a serious question as to the existence of facts which make for plaintiff’s right, and are sufficient to establish it, a preliminary restraining order will be continued to the hearing.” Cab Co. v. Creasman, 185 N. C., 556. It is to be noted that the court below found that all the parties to the action have acted honestly and in good faith, according to their respective views as to what was the best interest of the children of the district.
