Supreme Court of Arkansas July 22, 1905 (Hinson v. State)

Riddick, J.,

(after stating the facts.) This is an appeal from a judgment convicting the defendant of an assault with intent to kill one Al. Smith. While the evidence does not fully satisfy us that either of the defendants intended to kill Smith, the assault made by Hinson was very persistent, and, had no one interfered, might have resulted in the death of Smith.
