96 Ga. 783; 22 S.E. 388
Matthews v. Willoughby

Opinion of the Court

Simmons, C. J.

The determination of this case depended entirely upon whether the jury believed the witnesses for the plaintiff or the witnesses for the defendant. They having believed the former, and there being no error of law alleged, the case falls within the general rule that a verdict supported by evidence and approved by the trial judge will not be disturbed. Judgment affirmed.
