CATES, Judge.

Assault with intent to murder: sentence, 20 years. Code 1940, T. 14, § 38.

The gist of the prosecution's proof was that a girl of about two years of age was severely beaten. Bruises were on all her limbs, torso and head. About February 16, 1970, Akins, in the office of the judge of probate (who then was acting as Juvenile Court Judge) spontaneously stated that he whipped the child. No lawyer attended him when he said this.
