    O’Neal v. The State.
    Decided May 11, 1927.
    Manslaughter; from Upson superior court — Judge Searcy. February 16, 1927.
    
      John B. McDonald, for plaintiff in error.
    
      E. M. Owen, soliciior-gcneral, James B. Davis, contra:
    Criminal Law, 16 C. J. p. 1050, n. 84; p. 1149, n. 92.
    Homicide, 30 C. J. p. 316, n. 68.
   Luke, J.

The defendant was charged with murder and was convicted of voluntary manslaughter. Neither the excerpt from the charge nor the refusal to charge, set out in the motion for a new trial, shows cause for a reversal. The charge as a whole was full and fair and covered the law applicable to the case. The verdict was authorized by the evidence.

Judgment affirmed.

Broyles, C. J., and Bloodworth, J., concur.
