Baker v. State

The question was asked the witness Mrs. Baker by defendant’s counsel on her direct examination:

“If there was an easy way of escape from where Commodore [defendant] and that negro was.’!

The objection to this question was properly sustained as calling for a conclusion.

Defendant’s counsel asked J. E. Baker, defendant’s witness, “Did you tell Jess [deceased] to get your plow stock and plow-with it?” to which witness answered, “No, sir.” ' On motion by the state the question and answer were excluded. There was no error in this'. The testimony was not a part of, nor did it relate to, the res gesta».
