1Opinion of the Court

HARWOOD, Judge.

This is the second time this case has been before this court. See Helms v. State, Ala.App. 37 So.2d 229, certiorari denied 251 Ala. 275, 37 So.2d 231.

The appellant was indicted for assault with intent to murder one Cy English, by-shooting him with a pistol.

Again we are convinced from a reading of the record that the evidence presented by the State was ample in its tendencies to support the verdict and judgment rendered.

We are clear to the conclusion however that certain rulings by the court to questions propounded to the appellant on cross examination compel a reversal of this…
