Opinion:
Lumpkin, J.
1. The evidence supported the verdict.
2. The newly discovered evidence was cumulative or impeaching; no sufficient reason appears why most, if not all, of it was not, or could not,, by the exercise of due diligence, have been known to the accused before-the trial; and no reason appears for granting a new trial.
Judgment affirmed.
All the Justices concur, except Fish, O. J., absent-
