      W. B. Turner, M. Price, for plaintiff in error.
    
      W. B. Gills, solicitor-general, J. B. Thomas & Son, contra.
   Broyles, O. J.

1. Under the principle of the ruling in Eidson v. State, 21 Ga. App. 244, the alleged error in the charge of the court, complained of in ground 1 of the amendment to the motion for a new trial, does not require a new trial.

2. Under the facts of the ease the failure of the court to instruct the jury upon the law of involuntary manslaughter was not error.

3. The verdict was amply authorized by the evidence.

Judgment affirmed.

Luke and Bloockvorih, JJ., concur.
