Opinion — Bell

Bell, Chief Judge.

Plaintiff brought this suit to recover damages to her property based on negligence. A jury returned a verdict against the defendants and apportioned the damages equally between the two. Judgment was entered accordingly. The defendant Jones has appealed enumerating six errors.

Held:

1. Five of the enumerations concern the court’s charge to the jury. Defendant Jones made no requests to charge and made no objections or exceptions to the charge. These enumerations will not be considered. Code Ann. § 70-207;
