Kilgore v. State

Opinion of the Court

Beoyxes, C. J.

Under the facts of the case, the failure of the court to instruct the jury upon the law of “misfortune or accident” was not error. The remaining special grounds of the motion for a new trial are without merit; and the verdict was amply authorized by the evidence.

Judgment affirmed.

Luke and Bloodworth, JJ., concur. Smith & Taylor, for plaintiff in error. W. Y. Atkinson, solicitor-general, S. Holderness, Boykin & Boykin, contra.
