(After stating the facts.) Conceding that the evidence in the case established beyond controversy the fact that the intestate of the plaintiff in error had a husband in life at the time she sustained the injuries complained of and at the time of her death, we think that the court should have overruled the motion for a nonsuit. The court below evidently granted the nonsuit upon the idea that the right of action survived to the husband, and not to the administrator of the original plaintiff, who died after the institution of her action to recover for personal injuries to herself. That the' action itself did not abate is perfectly clear from the reading of § 3825 of the Civil Code, which provides: “No action for a tort shall abate by the death of either party ‘where the wrong-doer received any benefit from the tort complained of; nor shall any action for the recovery of damages for homicide, injury to person, or injury to property abate by the death of either party; but such cause of action, in ease of the death of the plaintiff, shall, in the event there is no right of survivorship in any other person, survive to the personal representative of the deceased plaintiff, and in case of the death oli the defendant, shall survive against said defendant’s personal representative.” This action was brought to recover for pain and suffering, mental and physical, resulting from the injuries complained of, which were, it is alleged, of a serious and permanent character, impairing plaintiff’s mind and her bodily vigor and strength and her capacity to labor. Under the facts alleged in the petition, and which there was evidence before the court and jury to support, it appeared that the original plaintiff in the case had been injured by the negligent and tortious conduct of defendant’s agents and employees. Under such a state of facts two different causes of action may arise, — the one in favor of the woman for her own pain and suffering, and the other in. favor of the husband for the loss of his wife’s services and the expenses incurred, if any, as the consequence of the injuries to her. These causes of action are separate and distinct, and in favor of different parties, and could not properly be joined in one suit. Georgia Railroad Co. v. Tice, 124 Ga. 459 (52 S. E. 916). This suit was instituted by the woman to recover for pain and suffering. To that action she was a necessary and the only necessary party, and at her death there was no other party in whom was vested the right of srrrvivorship. Tf the husband had been originally joined
