Central of Georgia Railway Company v. Castellow.
    Submitted December 12, 1904 —
    Decided January 28, 1905.
   Cobb, J.

The requests to charge, so far as legal and pertinent, were in substance covered by the general charge. The evidence was sufficient to raise a presumption of negligence against the company, and a finding that the presumption had not been rebutted was authorized. The discretion of the trial judge in refusing to grant a new trial will not be interfered with.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concur.
