   Faircloth, C. J.:

At the trial, but before the ease was heard, the plaintiff demanded a jury trial, which was refused. In the case sent to this Court by his Honor it appears that when the order of reference was made, the plaintiff interposed no objection, and also that the order was made at the plaintiff’s request. This was a waiver •of the right to a jury trial which could not be recalled except by consent. Driller Co. v. Worth, 117 N. C., 515, where the authorities are collected.

The findings of fact by the referee, when there is any evidence, are.not reviewable in this Court. The exceptions made before the referee in this case are not reviewable here. The case states that the plaintiff ■excepted'to the judgment, but no errors are assigned, so ■that in this respect there is nothing before us.

Affirmed.
