1Opinion of the CourtCockrell, J.
Under an indictment for an assault with intent to commit murder, the defendant was convicted of an assault with intent to commit manslaughter and sentenced to the. Slate prison for the period of five years.
The first contention is that there is no such offense, common law or statutory, as that of which he was convicted. Such contention is fully met and overthrown by the decision of this court in the case of Williams v. State, 41 Fla. 295, 26 South. Rep. 184, and we see no good reason for changing the views of the law as there expressed.
