1Opinion of the CourtFish, C. J.

This is a motion lor change of venue under the act of 1911. From the petition it appears: At the spring term, 1915, of the superior court of Crisp county, Honor Bivins was indicted and tried on the charge of being accessory before the fact to murder. There was a verdict of guilty; he was refused a new trial, and on a bill of exceptions to this court, assigning error upon such refusal, the judgment of the trial court was reversed. It appears that T. E. Gleaton, the person alleged to have been murdered was, at the time he was killed, treasurer of Crisp county and a citizen of much prominence.
