Description
SHAKE, C.J. The appellant was tried by a jury and adJudged guilty of murder in the second degree. He asserts that the verdict is not sustained by sufficient evidence and also that a new trial ought to have been granted on account of surprise which ordinary prudence could not have guarded against and for newly discovered evidence, material to his defense, which could not with reasonable diligence have been discovered and produced at the trial. Dorothy Mills was killed and the appellant was wounded by means of a pistol discharged during an altercation. At the trial two witnesses testified for the State that the appellant subsequently told them in the hospital that he shot the decedent and that the appellant made this statement while two police detectives were in the room. The appellant was a witness in his own behalf and denied this conversation. The names of the detectives were endorsed on the indictment, and they were subpoenaed by the State but did not testify. In affidavits made a part of the motion for a new trial, the detectives denied that they were in the room when the appellant made any such statement.
