    BROWN v. THE STATE. CULBREATH v. THE STATE.
   Smith, Judge.

The appellants jointly were indicted, tried before a jury, and convicted of the offense of cruelty to a child. The evidence before the jury was properly elicited and was sufficient to support the verdict. The court’s charge viewed as a whole correctly stated the law applicable to the evidence and the issues, and the appellants were properly sentenced. The enumerations of error presented by both appeals are meritless.
