    Moore, alias Grier, v. The State.
    Decided October 26, 1934.
    
      J. A. Mitchell, P. II. Mitchell, for plaintiff in error.
    
      J. Cecil Davis, solicitor-general, contra.
   MacIntyre, J.

It is error to refuse a new trial on an indictment containing two counts, the first charging that the defendant carried a pistol concealed, and the second that he carried a pistol without a license, where upon the trial the evidence authorizes a conviction under the second count only and the verdict is a general verdict of guilty. Simmons v. State, 162 Ga. 316 (134 S. E. 54).

Judgment reversed.

Broyles, G. J., and Guerry, J., concur.
