Summary: On writ of error we review judgment of conviction of the crime of manslaughter under an indictment charging murder in the first degree. The judgment is challenged on the ground of alleged insufficiency of the evidence. The evidence was conflicting and the conflicts were matters within the province of the jury to settle. The jury found against the accused and the trial court declined to set aside the verdict. It is not made to appear that reversible error was committed. See Sanford v. State, 90 F
