BROCK, Chief Judge.
With considerable tenacity, defendant has brought forward seventeen exceptions grouped in five assignments of error. We have carefully considered each and find that they present no new or novel question. We feel, therefore, that a seriatim discussion would serve no useful purpose.
In our opinion defendant had a fair trial, free from prejudicial error.
No error.
Judges Morris and Parker concur.
