Worth H. Hester, Elizabethtown, Hester, Hester & Johnson, for defendant-appellant.


PARKER, Judge.

The sole assignment of error brought forward on this appeal is directed to the court's acceptance of the verdict as a verdict of guilty of second-degree murder. Appellant contends that the verdict as originally announced by the jury foreman found him guilty of voluntary manslaughter and that the court erred in accepting the verdict of guilty of second-degree murder. There is no merit in this contention.
