1Opinion of the Court
J. JOSEPH SMITH, Circuit Judge:
This is an appeal from an order of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Rosling, J., quashing service of summons and complaint upon the appellee, and from a subsequent decision of the court affirming the prior order on rehearing. The attempted service was held to be ineffective because not fully completed within: the time specified for service of process by the written contract between the parties. We hold the district court’s construction of the contractual language too restricted! and accordingly reverse the orders.
