Opinion

Lumpkin, C. J.

We have examined the record in this case, and finding no error of law, and the same being fully and fairly submitted to the j ury, and they having returned a verdict of guilty, we see no occasion to reverse the finding and send the case back to be reheard.

The jury must be allowed to exercise their legitimate functions; that is, to pass upon the facts in all such cases; and we are unwilling to substitute ourselves in their place.

Judgment affirmed..
