Although there was no direct proof of a conspiracy or ‍​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‍of acts and conduct that would show a conspiracy between the defendant and Johnson, who was indicted with him (see Johnson ‍​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‍v. State, 44 Ga. App. 161 S. E. 160), and the court erred in charging’ thereon, such error was not harmful ‍​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‍to the defendant in this case. The victim of the robbery testified positively that “Mr. Hill was the man who ‍​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‍held me up.” The evidence amply authorized the verdict of guilty, and no reversible error is shown by the motion ‍​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‍for a new trial.

Judgment affirmed.

Broyles, O. J., and Bloodworth, J., concur.
