Opinion of the Court

The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Mr. Chief Justice Gary.

The only question raised by the appeal is, whether there was error on the part of his Honor, the Circuit Judge, in allowing the plaintiff to amend his complaint in the particulars mentioned in the record.

The right to allow the plaintiff‘to amend the complainl was within the discretion of his Honor, the Circuit Judge ■ which, it has not been made to appear, was erroneously exer cised.

It is only necessary to cite the case of Taylor v. R. R. Co. 81 S. C. 574, 62 S. E. 1113, to show that the order allowing the amendment was properly granted.

Appeal dismissed.
