Opinion

Wade, O. J.

1. The various exceptions to the charge of the court, on account of alleged inaccuracies in presenting the issues raised by the evidence, are without substantial merit; nor is a reversal required by any of the remaining grounds of the amendment to the motion for a new trial.

Decided December 12, 1917.

Action for damages; from Dade superior court — Judge'Fite. November 27, 1916.

Payne & Hale, for plaintiff in error. B. T. Brock, contra.

2. There was no demurrer, and this court can not.say as a matter of law that the alleged; damages were too remote to authorize a recovery, or that the evidence adduced at the trial did not reasonably support the deduction, under the ruling in Stoner v. Patten, 132 Ga. 178, 63 S. E. 897) ; that said damages resulted directly from the acts and conduct of the defendant; ''and the trial judge having approved the verdict, his judgment in overruling the motion for a new trial is

Affirmed.

Jenkins and Luke, JJ., concur.
