Dillard & Hill for plaintiff.

Thomas S. Rollins for defendant.

Per Curiam.

Tbe plaintiff brought suit to recover damages for personal injury alleged to bave been caused by tbe defendant’s negligence. He was engaged in transferring laths from a truck to an adjoining car, standing with one foot on tbe “dock” and tbe other on top of tbe car. While attempting to “pitch tbe bundles up there” bis foot slipped and be was injured by falling. We fail to discover any sufficient evidence of actionable negligence, and tbe judgment must be

Affirmed.
