Opinion:
OPINION OP THE COURT. This is an appeal from the Conway circuit court. The appellant moved for a new trial, on an affidavit setting forth newly discovered evidence, and stating that the evidence was not known to his counsel on the trial of the cause. But it does not state that it was unknown to himself, which we think indispensable. Judgment affirmed.
