Opinion of the Court

Russell, J.

The exceptions to. the charge of the court and to the rulings upon the evidence are not sufficiently meritorious to warrant a reversal of the judgment refusing a new trial. The defendant had a fair trial, and the evidence authorized the verdict. Judgment affirmed.

Dissenting Opinion

Rowell, J.,

dissenting. There are some errors in the record; as to this we all agree. In a sense, they may be considered as minor errors; but to my mind they can not he considered a,s harmless, since the evidence of the defendant's guilt of the grave offense for which he was convicted is so slight.
