17927.
    Swain v. The State.
    Decided April 12, 1927.
    Manslaughter; from Tattnall superior court — Judge Sheppard. December 30, 1926.
    
      B. J. Giles, A. 8. Way, for plaintiff in error.
    
      J. T. Grice, solicitor-general, contra.
    Criminal Law, 16 C. J. p. 1122, n. 65; p. 1206, n. 95.
    Homicide, 30 C. J. p. 316, n. 68.
   Broyles, C. J.

1., The alleged newly discovered evidence is not of such a character as would probably produce a different verdict upon another trial of the case.

2. The remaining grounds of the amendment to the motion for a new trial show no reversible error.

3. The verdict was amply authorized by the evidence, and the refusal to grant a new trial was not error.

Judgment affirmed.

Luke and Bloodworth, JJ., concur.
