19374.
    Dodgen et al. v. Fowler, executor.
    Decided April 9, 1929.
   Luke, J.

The evidence in the record being in sharp conflict as to material matters, this case comes within the rule that the first grant of a new trial will not be disturbed when the verdict is not demanded by the law and the facts. Civil Code (1910), § 6204; Douglas v. Hardin, 161 Ga. 838 (2) (131 S. E. 896); Carr v. Carr, 157 Ga. 208 (121 S. E. 227) ; Parks v. Stevens, 21 Ga. App. 180 (94 S. E. 60) ; Louisville, & Nashville R. Co. v. Barksdale, 34 Ga. App. 812 (131 S. E. 298).

Judgment affirmed.

Broyles, C. J., and Bloodworth, J., concur.
