Wilkerson vs. The State of Georgia.
    [Jackson, O. J., not presiding, on account of providential cause.]
    It is error for the court to cause twelve jurors to be sworn upon their voire dire and examined together touching their competency, ordering such as disqualified themselves to stand aside, and putting upon the prisoner each of those pronounced competent, as his name was called. Each juror called should be disposed of and either accepted or rejected before another is presented to the accused ; and more than one cannot be examined on their voire dire at one time. 65 Oa., 430, 432 ; 60 Id., 367; Code, §§4681, 4684.
    Judgment reversed.
    October 2, 1884.
   Hall, Justice,
