SELLERS v. THE STATE.
The evidence authorized the verdict of manslaughter.
Decided March 6, 1923.
Conviction- of manslaughter; from Eulton- superior court — Judge Humphries. November 4, 1922.

John A. Boykin, solicitor-general, E. A. Stephens, contra.

Opinion:
Loke, J.
The indictment in this case charged the defendant with the offense of murder. The jury convicted him of voluntary manslaughter. The evidence amply authorized the defendant's conviction, which has the approval of the trial judge. The sole assignment of error is upon the ground that the evidence does not authorize the verdict. It was not error to overrule the motion for a new trial.
Judgment affirmed.
Broyles, O. J., and Bloodworth, J., concur.
