Taking the plaintiff’s own testimony, according to the well-recognized rule that it shall be most strongly construed against him where it is fairly susceptible of two different constructions, the case falls within the decisions of the Supreme Court in Seaboard Air-Line Ry. v. Rainey, 122 Ga. 307 (50 S. E. 88), and Nunn v. Georgia Railroad, 71 Ga. 710. Judgment affirmed.
