1Opinion of the CourtSutton, P. J.

This case was before this Court in Porter v. Southern Railway Co., 73 Ga. App. 718 (37 S. E. 2d, 831), where it was held that the lower court properly sustained a general demurrer to count 1 of the original petition, but erred in sustaining the general demurrer to count 2 and in dismissing the plaintiff’s action. Thereafter, the issues formed by count 2 of the petition and by the answer thereto were tried and passed on by a jury. The jury returned a verdict in favor of the defendant. The exception here is to the judgment overruling the plaintiff’s amended motion for a new trial.
