Matthews v. State
Matthews v. State
10 Ga. App. 302; 73 S.E. 404; 1912 Ga. App. LEXIS 473
Matthews v. State
Opinion of the Court
The evidence is insufficient to rebut the presumption that the barn was accidentally burned. Further, in the absence of any evidence showing that the prosecutor’s statements in regard to the defendant’s lack of financial credit had been communicated to him, no motive on the defendant’s part to burn the barn is disclosed.
Judgment reversed.
