Bonds, 125 Ga. 833), yet under the evidence, especially that tending to show that the petitioner had attorned to the defendant as his landlord, and had given and paid notes for the rent of the premises involved in the controversy, there was no abuse of discretion on the part of the presiding judge in[*390] refusing an injunction to prevent the landlord from proceeding to dispossess him as a tenant holding over, even if the evidence might have ' authorized him to grant it, and to consolidate the different suits under the equitable petition.
