Opinion of the Court
Upon careful consideration of this case, and in view of the construction placed upon § 4424 of the Civil Code (1910) by this court (Mott v. Central R., 70 Ga. 680, 48 Am. R. 595; Coleman v. Hyer, 113 Ga. 420, 38 S. E. 962; Western & Atlantic R. Co. v. Harris, 128 Ga. 394, 57 S. E. 722), we are of the opinion that the Court of Appeals properly held as follows: “A married daughter, living with and supported by her husband, cannot sue for the homicide -of her father, although it appears that she is the only minor child, and that the wife of the father had predeceased him.”
Judgment affirmed.
