1Opinion of the Court

Bell, Judge.

Although the realm wherein there is uncertainty in leases and real-estate grants is one which lends itself to the jurisdiction of the court in its declaratory judgment powers (Felton v. Chandler, 75 Ga. App. 354, 43 S. E. 2d 742; Bond v. Ray, 83 Ga. App. 817, 65 S. E. 2d 30; Wright v. Kelly, 212 Ga. 769, 95 S. E. 2d 688; Brown v. Mathis, 201 Ga. 740, 41 S. E. 2d 137; Greene v. Golucke, 202 Ga. 494, 43 S. E. 497), yet the basis for a declaratory judgment is not established by a simple showing of uncertainty or ambiguity in a grant involving real estate.
