Broyles, C. J. The corpus delicti was sufficiently proved; and this court cannot hold as a matter of law that the jury were not authorized to find that the evidence, while wholly circumstantial, was sufficient to exclude every reasonable hypothesis save that of the defendant’s guilt. It follows that the court did not err in overruling the motion for a new trial, which contained only the usual general grounds.
Judgment affirmed,.
Luke and Bloochoorih, JJ., concur.
