Syllabus

<p>Syllabus.</p> <p>1. Amendments supplying mere omissions in pleadings may be allowed at any time before final judgment on exceptions aimed thereat.</p> <p>2. Where a particular cause is assigned for the discharge of an employee, the justification must be confined to that one cause.</p> <p>3. Where a party gives a reason for his conduct and decision touching anything in a controversy, he cannot after litigation is begun change his ground and put his conduct upon another and different consideration.</p> <p>4. The peremptory refusal of an employee to obey an apparently reasonable order, without assigning any reason at the time, amounts to a defiance of authority sufficient to warrant his discharge, and his reasons will not thereafter be inquired into.</p>
