Opinion of the Court

Atkinson, J.

The law of this case is settled by the decision of this court in Bently v. Terry, 59 Ga. 555; and the evidence, though conflicting, being amply sufficient to sustain the judgment rendered by the ordinary upon the writ of habeas corpus, there was no error in overruling the certiorari and thus affirming that judgment. Judgment affirmed.

Fouche & Fouche, for plaintiff. George A. H. Harris, for defendant.
