1Opinion of the CourtGilbert, J.
1. The court did not err in overruling the general demurrer to the petition. Upon the controlling legal issues involved the questions made are ruled by the decision in LaRoche v. Kinchlo, 150 Ga. 296 (103 S. E. 713).
2. The charge of the court, considered in its entirety, fairly and correctly submitted the issues to the jury, and is not subject to the criticisms made in the motion for a new trial. The assignments of error on the admission of evidence do not show cause for a reversal. The verdict is supported by evidence.
Judgment on main till of exceptions affirmed. Gross-hill of exceptions…
