<p>Indictment for murder — conviction of voluntary manslaughter; from Clayton superior court — Judge Smith. March 11, 1916.</p>

Decided 1916-05-19

Russell, C. J.

¶1There was no eye-witness to the homicide, and there were some circumstances so strongly indicating a mutual intent to fight, and a mutual combat, as to authorize the instructions of the court upon the subject of voluntary manslaughter, as well as to warrant the verdict of that offense; and the court did not err in overruling the motion for a new trial. Judgment affirmed.
