16750.
    Wright v. The State.
    Decided November 11, 1925.
    Rehearing denied December 15, 1925.
    Conviction of attempt to commit arson; from Fulton superior court—Judge Humphries. July 15,'1925..
    
      George F. Fielding, for plaintiff in error.
    
      John A. Boykin, solicitor-general, Ralph H. Pharr, contra.
   Luke, J.

Clara Wright was indicted for the offense of arson, and convicted of an attempt to commit that offense. The evidence, though circumstantial, clearly excluded every reasonable hypothesis other than, that of her guilt. The special assignments of error are wholly without merit. The court properly overruled the motion for a new trial.

Judgment affirmed.

Broyles, G. J., and Bloodworth, J., concur.
