1. The fact that the prosecutrix in an

i 2.i If the prosecutrix -consented to
have connection with the prisoner npon

is guilty of rape if he succeeds, and 61
an assault with intent to commit rape

8. It seems that this offence is com

the prosecutrix against J her will, al
though she afterwards consents.
4. In order to warrant a verdict of

1. To renaer the act-of killing excus

prisoner should have reasonable ground
to apprehend, and shouid actually ap
prehend, that his life is in danger or
that deceased is about to, do him some
great bodily harm; but it is for tho jury.
and not for the prisoner, to judge of the
reasonableness .of each apprehension
S. It is held as a general rule that
the lailure of the judge -to charge the
jury on a certain point, unless request
ed so to charge, is not error. But it is
his duty under The Code, section 413,
to state clearly the .particular issues
arising on the evidence,' and on j which
the jury aru to pass, mxd to instruct
ti em as to the law applicable to every
state of facta which they may find from
the evidence.
6 Where there are divers witnesses,
and the testimony; is conflicting, it is
error in the judge to single out a' single
witness who is contradicted by other
witnesses, and to instruct the jury that
if they believe the testimony Of such
whiiea then the' prisoner was guilty of
murder. 4 .1
