Opinion by

Daniel J. Shannon, District Judge. *

Floyd Edward Walker was charged by an information with murder in the first and second degree of Albert Fondal, to which he pled not guilty. He was found guilty of voluntary manslaughter by a jury. By writ of error Walker, hereinafter called defendant, seeks reversal of the judgment or in the alternative a new trial on the charge of manslaughter and dismissal of the charges of murder in the first and second degree.

We find no substantial errors on the part of the trial court requiring a reversal of the judgment or a new trial.
