    Wallace v. Kimball Company.
    Decided July 25, 1917.
    Action for damages; from Fulton superior court—Judge Pendleton. December 7, 1916.
    
      Neufville & Neufville, for plaintiff.
    
      William E. Arnaud, for defendant.
   George, J.

If it be conceded that, under the allegations of the petition, the defendant’s foreman in charge of its packing and shipping department was its vice-principal, it nevertheless appears, from further allegations of the petition, that, as to the negligence on his part which brought about the injury, he was a mere fellow servant of the plaintiff. The petition, therefore, was properly dismissed on general demurrer. While doing a servant’s work engaged solely in executing the ordinary details of labor in connection with another servant, a foreman who' in other respects stands in the place of the master is a fellow servant, and his negligence therein will not render the master liable to the other servant, except where the master is a railroad company. Civil Code (1910), § 3129; Studevant v. Blue Springs Lumber Co., 16 Ga. App. 668 (3) (85 S. E. 977), and eases there cited.

Judgment affirmed.

Wade, G. J., and Luke, J., concur.
