Opinion of the Court — Atkinson

Text extracted by OCR from a scanned original; check the original for exact wording.

Atkinson, J.

1. The undisputed evidence required a finding for the defendant ; and if there were any errors in some of the rulings of the court or inaccuracies in the charge, they were not such as to necessitate a new trial.

2. Sufficient foundation was laid as to the loss of the deed under which defendant prescribed, to adinit secondary evidence thereof.

3. A refusal to allow an amendment to a petition and sustaining a demurrer thereto furnishes no ground for a motion for a new trial. Turner v. Barber, 131 Ga. 444 ( 62 S. E. 587 ); Hawkins v. Studdard, 132 Ga. 262 ( 63 S. E. 852 ); Leathers v. Leathers, 132 Ga. 211 ( 63 S. E. 1118 ).

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concur.
