From judgment entered in accordance therewith in favor of defendant, plaintiff excepts thereto and appeals to Supreme Court, and assigns error.\nFolger & Ellington, Jordan, Wright, Henson <fc Nichols for plaintiff, appellant.\nSmith, Moore, Smith, Schell & Hunter, Poteat & Franks for defendant appellee."
