Opinion of the Court

Broyles, C. J.

1. The excerpt from the charge of the court complained of in the special ground of the motion for a new trial, when considered in connection with the other portions of the charge set out in that ground, contains no reversible error.

2. The other grounds of the motion for a new trial, not having been argued in the brief of counsel for the plaintiff in error, are treated as abandoned.

Judgment affirmed.
