““Instructions are to be considered with reference to each other, and as an entirety, and error in a particular instruction will not justify a reversal unless it is of such a nature that the whole charge of which it forms a part is thereby vitiated so as to mislead the jury as to the law of the case * *”
2 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. Tait v. State · O'Neil v. State““. . . If evidence is relevant upon the general issue of guilt or innocence, no valid reason exists for its rejection merely because it may prove, or may tend to prove, that the accused committed some other crime, or may establish some collateral and unrelated fact. . . .””
2 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. Kallas v. State · White v. State“_ “The confession of a defendant made .under inducement, with all the circumstances, may be given in evidence against him, except when made under, the influence of fear produced by threats or by intimidation or undue influence; but a confession made under inducement is not sufficient to warrant a conviction without corroborating evidence.””
