White v. Hammond

79 Ga. 182 | Ga. | 1887

Bleckley, Chief Justice.

This case presents no legal question, simply a question of fact; and we dispose of it in this brief summary as a complete opinion:

The credit of witnesses is for the jury. If the jury believed the plaintiff’s witnesses, the verdict was not without evidence to support it. In construing and applying testimony, reasonable inferences and deductions may be made, and conclusions may be reached that lie quite beyond the mere letter of the evidence.

Judgment affirmed.
