Syllabus

<p>1. Error wmi not aiavays reverse—as to giving and refusing instructions. The refusal of a proper instruction relating to a collateral issue, which, if given, would not probably have induced a different verdict, affords no ground of reversal, as such error works no prejudice.</p> <p>2. This court will not reverse, in every case of conflict in the evidence, because of some slight error in giving or refusing an instruction. When the evidence clearly sustains the verdict, this court never reverses for error in instructions.</p>
