    GEORGE ROLLER, EX’R, v. SAM PEARCE, EXECUTOR OF JOHN ROLLER, DEC’D.
    Knoxville,
    September Term, 1877.
    1. CHANGE OE VENUE. Made upon facts, not mere conclusions.
    A chang-e of venue must be made upon facts produced, and not upon mere conclusions of fact.
    2. SAME. Differences in politics, churches, etc., not sufficient for.
    The facts must fix some g-ood reason personal to the applicant why he cannot have a fair and’impartial trial in the county where the. suit is pending other than a general statement that on account of differences in politics, churches, trades, professions, etc., he cannot have such a trial.
   Turret, J.,

delivered the opinion of the court:

On an application for a change of venue in a civil action, the court to whom the application is made must act upon the facts produced before it, and not upon mere: conclusions of fact by the applicant, or the witnesses introduced by him.

The facts must fix some good reason or reasons personal to the applicant why he cannot have a fair and impartial trial in the county where the suit is pending. A general statement that because of a difference of political opinion, or because the political party of his adversary is in a large majority, without more, is no sufficient reason for a change of venue.

The reason upon which such rule is sought to be established applies as well to-churches, trades, professions — in fact, to all the industrial, social, and moral relations of life. Reverse the judgment, and remand the cause to Sullivan county, for a new trial.
