WILLIAMS, District Judge.
This matter is before the Court upon defendant’s motion to quash as insufficient service of the summons and complaint upon the Secretary of State of South Carolina on February 24, 1955, as alleged statutory agent of the defendant, and to dismiss the action for want of jurisdiction of the defendant. It presents for decision the question of whether under the facts defendant is to be regarded as doing business in South Carolina on February 24, 1955 and, therefore, present in this state at that time so as to be subject to service and suit therein.
