SHACKLEFORD, J. -- An indictment was returned against Robert Hopps and Bertha Thomas, charging the former with the crime of murder in the first degree and the latter with the crime of accessory before the fact. A severance was granted and Robert Hopps was first put upon trial, found guilty of murder in the first degree with a recommendation to the mercy of the court and sentenced to confinement at hard labor in the State prison for the period of his natural life. On the following day after the conclusion of the trial of Robert Hopps, Bertha Thomas was placed on trial, found guilty of being an ""accessory before the fact to the commission of manslaughter"" and senteced to confinement at hard labor in the State prison for the period of twenty years. Bertha seeks relief here by a writ of error and has assigned five errors. We shall follow the course pursued by the counsel for the respective parties and discuss the assignments in the order in which they are argued before us.
