George sued the bank, alleging that it was due him $516.49, because of the following facts: On the 26th of September, 1895, Archibald Wilson gave to the plaintiff an order on the bank in the following .words and figures: “Lithonia, Ga., Sept. 26th, 1895. To Cashier Atlanta National Bank: Please pay Mr. M. M. George the amount you are due me, and also give him my bank book; and if the Chicago check has not come in, please place to his credit when it does come in. ” [Signed] “Archibald Wilson. ” By which paper the deposit account of Wilson amounting to the sum sued for was transferred and assigned to the petitioner. He gave notice of the same on the 27th of September, and on said last-named day he indorsed the written assignment and delivered it to the bank, and the bank accepted the same, but only paid him $216.49. The defendant denied all the allegations in the petition, and pleaded that the paper given was made to hinder and delay the creditors of Wilson. It further pleaded that, previously to the acceptance of the order, Wilson had given a check to one R. W. Milner for the sum of $300 on the fund in the bank, which was paid, leaving only to the credit of Wilson in the bank the said sum of $216.49, which it paid over on said order to the plaintiff. The main question of fact to be determined by the jury was, whether or not at the time Wilson gave the order to George the latter was informed that previously to the execution of the order Wilson had executed and delivered to Milner a check on the fund for $300, in payment of certain claims held against him by Milner. The plaintiff testified that he had no knowledge of that fact; that Wilson owed his firm an account of about $800, and that he accepted the order assigning the deposit account as a credit on said debt, in good faith and without any knowledge that the fund had previously been drawn on; that early the next morning, and before the opening of the bank, he presented the order, and at the request of the bank officials in*684dorsecl it and was told when the bank opened he could get the amount to Wilson’s credit, whatever that was. In the meantime, however, the check for $300 was presented and paid out of the fund. Wilson, on the contrary, testified that at the time he drew the check in favor of the plaintiff he notified him that he had, a short time before, made a check in favor of Milner for the sum of $300 and that he wrote the order in favor of George to cover the balance to his credit, without stating any given sum, because he was not certain what balance "would remain to his credit after the payment of the check for $300. There "was other evidence supporting the contention of the parties on this issue. The jury returned a verdict for the defendant. The plaintiff made a motion for a new trial on various grounds, and, after consideration, the court granted anew trial, which was the second, on the ground that the verdict was without evidence to support it, and on the further ground that the court "committed error as alleged in the 6th ground of the inotion. The defendant excepted, and we are to determine whether or not the court erred in granting the new trial.

We are of the opinion that it did. If George accepted the order from Wilson with knowledge that the latter had previously drawn on the fund to the amount of $300, and that it was the intention of. Wilson to transfer and assign to him the amount on deposit to his credit in the bank, less the sum of $300, then under no circumstances was he entitled to receive, on the order given, any greater amount than that which remained after the payment of check for $300. Whether this was so or not was a question of fact. Wilson in clear and explicit terms testified that he gave the check early in the evening; that later George called on him, and he explained to him that he had drawn a check on the fund, and talked the matter over with him, and after giving him the information he executed and delivered the order upon which the suit is founded. This evidence, if the jury believed it — and they had the right to do so — was amply sufficient to authorize a verdict for the defendant. The charge of which complaint is made, as set out in the 6th ground of the motion, is as follows: “If the jury believes from the evidence that at the time Mr. Wilson gave. *685the order to Mr. George he stated to Mr. George that he had given the $300 check to Mr. Milner, and it was the intention of Wilson, and this intention was known to Mr. George, to give the order for the balance of the account after the payment of the three hundred dollars, then and in that event the plaintiff could not recover, but you should find for the defendant. That is to say, gentlemen of the jury, on that issue, if Mr. George took this paper with notice that Mr. Wilson had already given a check on this fund for $300 to Mr. Milner with the intention that the check should be paid out of the fund, and Mr. George knew that, then the bank had the right to pay that check as against that order, and having already paid to Mr. George $216.49, the balance of the deposit account, the plaintiff would not have the right to recover in this case.” We see no objection whatever to this charge. It is clear, legal, and pertinent, and in our opinion was a proper charge to be given. We find nothing in thegrounds of the motion not mentioned in the order of the judge which requires the verdict to be set aside, and we think that the judge committed error in granting a new trial on the grounds specifically mentioned in his order; and while this court is reluctant to interfere with the discretion of a trial judge in setting aside a verdict, we are constrained to rule that as in our judgment the verdict rendered by the jury was amply supported by the evidence, and the charge of which complaint is made was legal and proper, the verdict, being the second one in favor of the defendant, should have been allowed to stand. Judgment reversed.

All the Justices concurring.
