The petition, properly construed most strongly against the plaintiff’s cause, shows that by ordinary care he could have avoided the consequences of the alleged negligence of the defendant after such *184negligence became existent, and the court did not err in dismissing the case upon the general demurrer interposed. The case of Cowart v. Savannah Electric Co., 5 Ga. App. 664 (63 S. E. 804), relied on by counsel for the plaintiff in error, is distinguished by its particular facts from this case.
Decided December 14, 1926.Judgment affirmed.
