Head Matter:
Lloyd RAMSEY, Appellant, v. COMMONWEALTH of Kentucky, Appellee.
Court of Appeals of Kentucky.
May 27, 1955.
Rehearing Denied Sept. 30, 1955.
Chat Chancellor, Frankfort, Ben Matthews, Shelbyville, for appellant.
J. D. Buckman, Jr., Atty. Gen., Zeb A. Stewart, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
The appellant was convicted of the common law offense of wantonly and recklessly wounding another with a pistol without malice, fined $5,000, the maximum amount, and sentenced to six months in jail instead of the maximum of a year in jail. We conclude the instructions given were correct and that an instruction on accidental shooting was properly refused.
The judgment is affirmed.
