Harris v. State
Supreme Court of Georgia
Indictment for murder. Before Judge Wrigbt. Floyd superior court. August 16, 1919.
1Opinion of the CourtGilbert, J.
1. The evidence admitted as to dying declarations was sufficient to make out a prima facie case that the declarations were made by the deceased while in articulo mortis, conscious of his condition, as to the cause of his death and the person who killed him, and there was no error in submitting them to the jury under proper instructions. No complaint is made in regard to the instruction of the court on that subject. Harper v. State, 129 Ga. 770 (3), 773 (59 S. E. 792); Hawkins v. State, 141 Ga. 212 (80 S. E. 711); Fitzpatrick v. State, 149 Ga. 95 (99 S. E. 128).
