21591.
Wilson v. The State.
Decided September 4, 1931.
C. G. Grodeett, W. W. Larsen Jr., for plaintiff in error.
Fred Kea, solicitor-general, contra.

Opinion:
Broyles, C. J.
1. Under repeated rulings of the Supreme Court and of this court a ground of a motion for a new trial can not be considered by the reviewing court when the ground is not unqualifiedly approved by the trial judge. In the instant case special grounds 1 and 2 of the motion for a new trial are not so approved.
2. The remaining special ground of the motion for a new trial is expressly disapproved by the judge.
3. The verdict was amply authorized, if not demanded, by the evidence, and the refusal to grant a new trial was not error.
Judgment affirmed.
Luke, J., concurs. Bloodworth, J., absent on account of illness.
