1. In the motion for a new trial certain evidence is objected to as “ entirely immaterial.” In Thompson v. Thompson, 77 Ga. 692(7) (3 S. E. 161), it is held: “Neither the rejection nor admission of immaterial evidence is cause for a new trial.” If the court erred in the admission of the evidence complained of, it was not of such materiality as to require the grant of a new trial. See Arnold v. Stevens, 139 Ga. 495 (77 S. E. 579); Brown v. State, 119 Ga. 572(2) (46 S. E. 833); Ga., Fla. & Ala. Ry. Co. v. Parsons, 12 Ga. App. 180(6) (76 S. E. 1063).
