PERRY, C. J.,
dissenting.
I must dissent from the majority opinion for the reason that I am unable to distinguish the construction of a similar contract set out in Long Motor Lines, Inc. v. Home Fire & Marine Insurance Co. of Cal., *191220 SC 335, 67 SE2d 512, from the construction that should be placed upon the policy in this case. I believe the South Carolina case was rightly decided and that our construction does violence to OES 42.250, “The terms of a writing are presumed to have been used in their primary and general acceptation, * * * *."
