(125 So. 204)
    ARRINGTON v. STATE.
    (1 Div. 882.)
    Court of Appeals of Alabama.
    Dec. 17, 1929.
    See, also, post, p. 351, 125 So. 799.
    C. L. I-Iybart, of Monroeville, for appellant.
    Charlie C. McCall, Atty. Gen., for the State.
   SAMFORD, J.

We have read this record en banc and fail to find any evidence to justify a conviction. What other influences brought about the verdict of guilt are not disclosed by the record. Be that as it may, the law requires some evidence of guilt before a conviction will be permitted to stand.

The affirmative charge should have been given for defendant. The defendant’s motion for a new trial should have been granted. The judgment is reversed, and the cause is remanded.

Reyersed and remanded.
