428.
    Davis v. The State.
    Conviction of manslaughter, from Toombs superior court— Judge Rawlings. March 1, 1907.
    Submitted April 23,
    Decided May 9, 1907.
    
      William B. Kent, John B. Cooper, for plaintiff in error.
   Powell, J.

The court erred in not granting a new trial on account of the newly discovered testimony; especially so, in the light of the character of the evidence on which the conviction rests.

Judgment reversed.
