Careful examination of the record in this cause disclosed that the parties, the issues and the questions of law raised herein are identical to the parties, the issues and the question of law raised in Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Company, a Corporation, v. Florida Fine Fruit Company, a Corporation, Number 538-Ap., decided this term, so the judgment of the Civil Court of Record as affirmed by the Circuit Court of Duval County is quashed on authority of that case.

Whitfield, P. J., and Buford, J., concur.

Ellis, C. J., and Strum and Brown, J. J., concur in the opinion.

Per Curiam.

Petition for rehearing on the part of respondent was granted in this cause for the purpose of further considering whether or not the petition for certiorari should be denied on the ground that a good ease was made on the general negligence and delay counts.

The record has been carefully re-examined. The verdict was general and the errors on which the judgment below was quashed so permeated and effected the entire proceeding we think that our former judgment herein must be and is hereby approved and the judgment of the Civil Court of Record as affirmed by the Circuit Court of Duval County is hereby quashed.

All concur.
