    Rape. Before Judge Searcy. Spalding superior court. May 34, 1934.
    
      J. A. Darsey, for plaintiff in error.
    
      George M. Napier, attorney-general, E? M. Owen; soliciior-general, and T. B. Gress, assistant attorney-general, contra.
   Beck, P. J.

The motion for new trial in this case contains' only the usual general grounds, that the verdict was contrary to the evidence and decidedly against the weight of the evidence; but the record discloses that the evidence for the State, if credible, was sufficient to support the verdict; and the jury being the judges of the weight of the evidence, this court can not disturb the judgment of the lower court refusing a new trial. Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concur.
