Lowry v. State , 8 Ga. App. 379 ( 1910 )

Hile, C. J.

1. In a prosecution for assault and battery, where the evidence shows that the beating was by “pushing and shoving,” it was not error to instruct the jury that “to beat is not necessarily to whip, to injure, or to hurt, but includes any unlawful imposition of the hands or arms.”

2. No error of law appears; and while the evidence in support of the verdict is quite weak, we can not say there was no evidence to support it.

Judgment affirmed.
