    Bowen v. Fuller & Son.
   Bloodworth, J.

“Where, in an instrument in the form of a note and mortgage for the purchase-price of a mule, it is stated that the purchaser agrees to pay for the mule if it should die, and that he assumes this risk in consideration of the credit extended, and purchases on his own judgment, he is not, upon the death of the mule, entitled to prove an express warranty of soundness, and defeat the purehase-priee on account of a breach of such warranty.” Cochran v. Jones, 11 Ga. App. 302 (75 S. E. 143). The decision in the case just cited controls this case. The note in this case, as in that case, contained the clause, “I or we insure the good condition and safe-keeping of said property, and will pay if it be lost, damaged, or destroyed, and if live stock, will pay though it may die. I or we assume said risk in consideration of the credit extended, and purchase the property on my or our own judgment.” This differentiates the present case and that of Cochran v. Jones, supra, from that of Whigham v. Hall, 8 Ga. App. 509 (70 S. E. 23), relied on by the plaintiff in error. The court did not err in sustaining the demurrer to the defendant’s plea or in directing a verdict for the plaintiff.
