LIVINGSTON, Chief Justice.
This is the second appeal of Caliph Washington from a conviction for first degree murder in the Circuit Court of Jefferson County, Alabama, Bessemer Division. He was convicted and sentenced to death. The case comes here under the automatic ap•peal statute, Act No. 249, Acts of Alabama ■1943, p. 217, approved June 24, 1943, Title 15, Sec. 382(1) et seq. Code of Alabama 1940.
On the former appeal, the essential facts and the evidence are set out in the opinion of the court. They are substantially the same as the record now before us, and it would serve no good purpose…
