    Williams v. The State.
   Grice, Justice.

1. A charge to the jury on circumstantial evidence is required only when the case is wholly dependent thereon. Nobles v. State, 127 Ga. 212 (5) (56 S. E. 125); Hegwood v. State, 138 Ga. 274 (75 S. E. 138); Brannon v. State, 140 Ga. 787 (7), 788 (80 S. E. 7); Clark v. State, 142 Ga. 601 (4), 602 (83 S. E. 223); Hicks v. State, 146 Ga. 221 (4) (91 S. E. 57).

2. That the charge omits an instruction as to the weight to be given to confessions (Code, § 38-420) is not cause for new trial, in the absense of a request therefor. Walker v. State, 118 Ga. 34 (3) (44 S. E. 850); Roberson v. State, 135 Ga. 654 (70 S. E. 175); Lindsay v. State, 138 Ga. 818 (6) (76 S. E. 369); Smith v. State, 139 Ga. 230 (2) (76 S. E. 1016); Millen v. State, 175 Ga. 283 (4) (165 S. E. 226).

No. 14603.

September 9, 1943.

The special grounds of the motion being without merit, and the verdict supported by the evidence, and having received the approval of the judge, the judgment refusing the new trial is

Affirmed.

All the Justices concur.
