There is no merit in the ‍‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌​‌​​‌​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‍errors assigned upon the several excerpts from the charge of the court. If ‍‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌​‌​​‌​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‍the defendant wished more particular instructions, timely request should have been made. The ‍‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌​‌​​‌​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‍evidence authorized the conviction, and it was not error to overrule the motion ‍‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌​‌​​‌​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‍for a new trial.

Judgment affirmed.
