Opinion of the Court
TERRELL, J.:

TERRELL, J.:

Appellant was convicted of murder in the second degree. On appeal, he contends that the judgment should be reversed because he acted in self defense and that the evidence does not support his conviction.

We have examined the record and find ample support for the judgment. It is affirmed on authority of Williams v. State, 148 Fla. 87, 3 So. (2nd) 721.

Affirmed.

BUFORD, C. J., CHAPMAN AND ADAMS, JJ., concur.
