Opinion of the Court
1. The evidence in this case proved the defendant guilty of murder, and there was nothing to require a charge on the subject of manslaughter.
2. The mere allegation, in a ground of a motion for a new trial, that while the defendant in a criminal case was making his statement a woman in the gallery or back part of the court-room burst out crying and sobbing loudly, but was immediately removed by the sheriff under the order of the court, who thereupon refused to declare a mistrial, furnishes no ground for reversal, it not appearing who the woman was or how the defendant was injured by the occurrence.
Judgment affirmed.
