Opinion

PER CURIAM.

In this case the plaintiff in error was convicted of using the mails in furtherance of a scheme to defraud. Error is assigned to portions of the court’s charge to the jury and to the failure to give a special charge as requested. The special' charge refused is substantially covered in the general charge. The court charged the jury fully and fairly on the law applicable to the case; in fact, very favorably to the defendant.

We find no error in the record. The judgment is affirmed.
