PRENTICE, Justice.

1. The verdict of the jury was not sustained by the evidence;

2. The trial court erred in admitting several photographs of the decedent into evidence;

8. The trial court erred in excluding, as hearsay, certain testimony proffered by the Defendant disclosing that the decedent had, earlier in the evening of the homicide, attempted to provoke a fight with another;

4. The trial court erred in accepting one of two conflicting verdicts.
