Opinion

George, J.

Indefiniteness in pleadings should, as a rule, be raised by • "special demurrer; yet a petition which is too vague and indefinite to r support- a recovery may properly be dismissed on general demurrer. Clark v. Gay, 112 Ga. 777 (38 S. E. 81) ; Garrett v. Hitchcock, 77 Ga. 427; Brooks v. Turner, 62 Ga. 164. Applying the foregoing, the peti- - tion as amended was properly dismissed.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concur.
