The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Mr. Justice Stabeer.

The defendants, who .were jointly charged with the murder of one J. T. Nicholson, were tried at the September, 1932, term of Court of General Sessions for Chesterfield County, and were convicted of voluntary manslaughter. It appears from the agreed facts that “Thomas T. Gregory admitted shooting the deceased twice with a shotgun loaded with double naught (00) buckshot, but claimed that he shot in self-defense. George W. Gregory admitted that he was present and had a pistol but did not use it, as Thomas T. Gregory shot first.”
