Opinion
1. Even under the statement of the defendant himself, the jury were authorized to find that the homicide was committed in repelling a mere assault, and the law of manslaughter was applicable. The evidence authorized the verdict.
2. The assignments of error not dealt with above are not of sufficient materiality to have required the grant of a new trial.
Judgment affirmed.
