Opinion

MacIntyre, ,J.

The circumstantial evidence upon which the accused was convicted was not sufficient to exclude every reasonable hypothesis save that of the guilt of the accused, and the trial judge erred in overruling the motion for a new trial. See Phillips v. State, ante, 665.

Judgment reversed.

Broyles, O. J., and Querry, J., concur.
