    O’Neal v. The State.
    Conviction of assault with intent to murder; from Laurens superior court — Judge Martin. April 16, 1910.
    Submitted June 1,
    Decided June 14, 1910.
    
      H. P. Howard, John B. Cooper, for plaintiff in error.
    
      P. D. Graham, solicitor-general, contra.
   Powell, J.

Though the evidence strongly indicates that the defendant was insane at the time he committed the crime for which he was convicted, yet the jury was legally authorized to find him sane. The charge of the court was fair, lucid, and free from error. No legal reason appears for the granting of a new trial. Judgment affirmed.
