Opinion

Evans, P. J.

The evidence before the judge on the motion to change the venue, under the act approved August 21, 1911 (Acts 1911, p. 74), authorized a finding that a fair and impartial jury could be obtained in the county where the crime was alleged to have been committed, and that there was no probability or danger of lynching or other violence to the accused. Accordingly it was not erroneous to refuse the motion for a change of venue. Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concur.
