1Opinion of the CourtJordan, C. J.

Appellant w'as convicted before a jury of having committed an assault and battery upon one Arnold Wyss with intent to kill and murder. His motion for a new trial was denied, and he was sentenced upon the verdict of the jury to be imprisoned in the State’s prison for a term of not less than two nor more than fourteen years. The only question discussed and urged by his counsel for a reversal of the judgment is that the court erred in overruling the motion for a new trial, for the reason that the evidence is wholly insufficient to sustain the judgment.

The evidence in the record was all given on…
