Opinion

SAMFORD, Judge.

According to the evidence on behalf of the state, this defendant, while being arrested by a police officer of the city of Florence on a charge of being drunk and disorderly in the presence of the officer, resisted arrest and in doing so made a murderous assault on the officer. The evidence for defendant tended to prove a justifiable assault, but the question was one for the jury under proper instructions from the court. ’

We have read this record and considered each exception reserved, and nowhere find any error or any necessity for an extended opinion.

Let the judgment be affirmed.
