Jenkins, P. J.
“ There being in the bill of exceptions no exception to any ■ final judgment, but only an exception to a judgment striking the defendant’s pleas, no question is presented which this court has jurisdiction to decide. This is true even though there is a recital in the bill of exceptions that the case was finally terminated by a judgment in favor of the plaintiff.” McCranie v. Shipp, 10 Ga. App. 544 (73 S. E. 701); Simmons v. Peagler, 7 Ga. App. 252 (66 S. E. 629); Whidden v. Merry, 8 Ga. App. 564 (69 S. E. 1085). See also Hendricks v. Reid, 125 Ga. 775 (54 S. E. 747); Newberry v. Tenant, 121 Ga. 561 (49 S. E. 621); Harrell v. Tift, 70 Ga. 730; Montgomery v. Reynolds, 124 Ga. 1053 (53 S. E. 512); Lyndon v. Ga. Ry. &c. Co., 129 Ga. 353 (3) (58 S. E. 1047); Mertins v. Pritchard, 135 Ga. 643 (2) (70 S. E. 328); Roddenbery v. Patterson, 136 Ga. 187 (71 S. E. 138); Hodges v. Citizens Bank, 146 Ga. 624, 627 (92 S. E. 49).
