Opinion:
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.
