Graham v. The State.
    No. 9264.
    November 17, 1932.
    
      Clarence T. Guyton, J. W. TJsher, and B. R. Tarver Jr., for plaintiff in error.
    
      Lawrence 8. Camp, attorney-general, W. G. Neville, solicitor-general, and T. R. Gress, assistant attorney-general, contra.
   Gilbert, J.

Erank Graham was convicted of the offense of murder, ■ and was sentenced to life imprisonment in the penitentiary. His motion for a new trial, consisting of the general grounds and one special ground, was overruled and he excepted. Held:

1. The verdict is supported by evidence.

2. The court did not err, as contended in the special ground of the motion for a new trial, in refusing, on written request, to submit to the jury, the issue of voluntary manslaughter.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concur.
