Beck, P. J.

Will Bradford, the plaintiff in error, was tried under an indictment for murder, in Wilkes superior court, at the August term, 1920. The jury returned a verdict of guilty, and the accused was Sentenced to confinement in the penitentiary for life. A motion for new trial was overruled at the hearing. The judgment refusing a new trial was reviewed by the Supreme Court, and *660the judgment of the trial court was affirmed. Bradford v. State, 151 Ga. 334 (106 S. E. 718). Subsequently the defendant filed an extraordinary motion for new trial, which was denied, and a. writ of error was sued out to the Supreme Court. The case was dismissed in the Supreme Court, on the ground that the motion was not filed in term time, as required by law. Bradford v. State, 152 Ga. 405 (108 S. E. 780). During the November term, 1921, and in term time, the defendant filed an extraordinary motion for new trial, which was then heard and overruled. To this judgment refusing a new trial the defendant excepted.

The last extraordinary motion for new trial, made in term time, was based upon newly discovered evidence. That newly discovered evidence consists of a single affidavit made by one Eva Evans, who deposed that she was near the scene where the deceased was shot and killed; that on that evening she went to the house of the accused for the purpose of obtaining a pistol; the accused was absent, but his wife, the deceased, got the pistol, saying, however, that she could not give it to the affiant unless instructed by Will Bradford. The affiant and the deceased (the latter having the pistol in her possession) left the house, the deceased remarking that she intended to meet Will Bradford. They came to the scene of the shooting, and saw Will Bradford and one Bosa Harmon together. Sallie Bradford, the wife of the accused, endeavored to fire, but Will Bradford caught hold of her, and there was a struggle, during which deponent ran off, and when a short distance away she heard the discharge of the pistol. The night was dark, but she could see the parties, though she was invisible to them. She was much frightened, and she heard afterwards that Sallie had shot Bosa Harmon, and had been arrested and was in jail. She said nothing about these facts, and “ Sallie Bradford was unwilling for me to mention them;” and for this reason Will Bradford knew nothing of the existence of these facts. The accused made an affidavit deposing that he did not know of this evidence until after the verdict. Counsel for the accused also made an affidavit to the same effect, and that they could not have ascertained the existence of this evidence before the trial in the exercise of due diligence. But there wrere no affidavits by other parties, showing the residence, associates, means of knowledge, character and credibility of the affiant, Eva Evans. Manifestly there was no *661error on the part of the jucjge hearing this motion in refusing a new trial. Civil Code, § 6086; Loyd v. State, 151 Ga. 717 (108 S. E. 55).
