    Indictment for murder. Before Judge Evans. Johnson superior court. April 20, 1901.
    
      A. L. Hatcher and J. L. Kent, for plaintiff in error. J. M. Terrell, attorney-general, and B. T. Rawlings, solicitor-general, contra.
   Lewis, J.

No error of law is assigned in the bill of exceptions. The evidence, although circumstantial, was sufficient, when taken all together, to warrant the conviction of the accused; and the trial judge being satisfied with the verdict, this court will not control his discretion in overruling the motion for

a new trial. Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concurring.
