1Opinion of the Court
By the Court,
Talbot, J.:
This is an appeal from an order vacating a judgment entered by default, which order was based upon the conclusion of the district court that the service of the complaint and summons upon C. H. Wise, assistant cashier of the defendant, *171which is a domestic corporation, was insufficient under the practice act, which provides that service upon a corporation organized under the laws of this state shall be upon the "president or other head of the corporation, secretary, cashier, or managing agent thereof.” (Stats. 1869, p. 200, c. 112, sec. 29; Comp. Laws, 8124.)
