Dissenting Opinion by
Mr. Chief Justice Bell :I agree with the Court’s position with respect to the inexcusable actions of counsel. However, I would af*17firm tlie conviction because I believe the Commonwealth’s evidence was sufficient to prove defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Furthermore, defendant took only a general exception, and several points which the Majority rely on for reversal and discharge are, in my judgment, devoid of merit.
For these reasons, I dissent.
