105 Ga. App. 739 | Ga. Ct. App. | 1962
1. A suit by a widow tó recover the full value of the life of her husband, alleged to have been fatally injured by negligent acts of the defendant city, is a suit for damages arising from injuries to the person. Atlantic, V. & W. R. Co. v. McDilda, 125 Ga. 468 (54 SE 140, 114 ASR 240); Cantrell v. Davis, 176 Ga. 745 (169 SE 38); Ivester v. Southern Ry. Co., 61 Ga. App. 364 (6 SE2d 214). See Lundy v. City Council of Augusta, 51 Ga. App. 655, 659 (4) (181 SE 237).
2. Where it does not appear from the petition itself that the ante litem notice, required by Code § 69-308, was given within the time therein provided, the city’s general demurrer was properly sustained. Saunders v. City of Fitzgerald, 113 Ga.
Judgment affirmed.
