19385.
SOUTHERN RAILWAY CO. et al. v. JENKINS.
Decided April 10, 1929.
McDaniel, Neely & Marshall, for plaintiff in error.
Hewlett & Dennis, contra.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
No cause of action was set out in the petition in this case, in which it was sought to recover for injuries to a railroad employee, alleged to be due to the defective condition of a ladder which fell when he was ascending it for the purpose of working on a locomotive, and to the negligence of a coemployee in striking the ladder; and the court erred in overruling the general demurrer.
Judgment reversed.
Broyles, O. J., and Bloodworth, J., concur. Luke, J., dissents.
