Opinion

Mobley, Justice.

The overruling of a demurrer, interposed by a defendant to a petition seeking to recover damages for a breach of warranty of title contained in a deed conveying land, does not present a case respecting title to land, so as to vest jurisdiction in the Supreme Court of a bill of exceptions assigning error on such ruling; nor does the case otherwise come within the jurisdiction of this court, and, accordingly, it must be transferred to the Court of Appeals. Code (Ann.) §§ 2-3704, 2-3708; Colley v. Atlanta & West Point R. Co., 156 Ga. 43 (118 S. E. 712); Stewart v. Board of Commissioners of Echols County, 192 Ga. 139 (1) (14 S. E. 2d 728); Lewis v. Fry, 193 Ga. 842 (22 S. E. 2d 817); Halliburton v. Collier, 201 Ga. 340 (39 S. E. 2d 698); Johnson v. Woodward Lumber Co., 202 Ga. 288 (42 S. E. 2d 639); Edenfield v. Lanier, 203 Ga. 348 (46 S.
