The background of this case is set forth in a former appeal reported in 254 N.C. 90, 118 S.E. 2d 17. Judge Hobgood conducted the inquiry 'to ascertain whether Winifred B. Fuller and Bernard J.

Fuller and Bernard J. Baggett were not cited or given any notice whatsoever with respect to the caveat proceeding filed on November 14, 1955, and had no knowledge thereof.” The court adjudged: “That as to Winifred B. Fuller *161and Bernard J. Baggett, and each of them, the judgment entered . . . November 9, 1955, probating in common and solemn form the paper writing purporting to be the last will and testament of Sara B. Cox, shall be, and the same is hereby vacated and set aside.
