Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Appellant was convicted of rape, and sentenced to imprisonment for a term •of one to four years. We have carefully considered the contentions made by his able court-appointed counsel, and especially whether the story of the complaining witness was sufficiently corroborated. But we have concluded that it was, and 'that the instructions to the jury in this respect were not prejudicial to the accused, under all the circumstances. On the -whole case, we find no error affecting substantial rights.
Affirmed.
