114 Ga. 36; 39 S.E. 949; 1901 Ga. LEXIS 556

Windom v. State

Opinion of the Court

Fish, J.

The request to charge which the court refused was substantially covered in the general charge ; the newly discovered evidence was merely cumulative, and it does not appear probable that, if it had been introduced upon the trial, a different verdict would have been rendered ; the evidence, as a whole, fully warranted the verdict; consequently, there was no abuse of discretion in overruling the motion for a new trial.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concurring.
