Opinion

The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Mr. Justice Cothran.

A careful consideration of the testimony in this case, a review of which would accomplish no useful purpose, conr vinces us that the evidence of the defendant’s guilt was insufficient to justify the submission of the case to the jury, and that a verdict of not guilty should have been directed by the Court. The judgment of this Court is that the judgment be reversed, and that the case be remanded for the direction of a verdict of not guilty under Rule 27 (90 S. E., xii).
