        "text": "DevxN, J.\nThe defendant\u2019s appeal from an adverse result below is based upon exceptions noted to the judge\u2019s charge to the jury. It is argued that the court failed to charge that the defendant\u2019s guilt must be found beyond a reasonable doubt, and that the court did not apply the law to the facts in evidence, and omitted reference to the effect of the evidence of good character of the defendant. But upon examination of the record we find none of the exceptions noted and brought forward in defendant\u2019s appeal can be sustained. The court properly charged the jury that the defendant was presumed to be innocent, and that the burden was upon the State to satisfy the jury by the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt of the guilt of the defendant as charged. The court also defined reasonable doubt substantially as stated in numerous decisions of this Court. S. v. Brackett, 218 N.C. 369, 11 S.E. 2d 146; S. v. Boswell, 194 N.C. 260, 139 S.E. 374; S. v. Griffith, 185 N.C. 756, 117 S.E. 586; S. v. Schoolfield, 184 N.C. 721, 114 S.E. 466. In the absence of request, it was not incumbent upon the trial judge to charge specifically as to the effect of evidence of the good character of the defendant. This was not an essential feature of the case. S. v. Reddick, 222 N.C. 520, 23 S.E. 2d 909; S. v. Merrick, 171 N.C. 788 (795), 88 S.E. 501. The defendant does not point out wherein the court failed to declare and explain the law arising upon the evidence. S. v. Thomas, 226 N.C. 384, 38 S.E. 2d 193. However, we think the case was fairly presented. S. v. Britt, 225 N.C. 364, 34 S.E. 2d 408. The jury was properly instructed as to wbat constitutes driving under the influence of intoxicating liquor in accord with the definition set out in S. v. Carroll, 226 N.C. 237, 37 S.E. 2d 688.\nIn the trial we find\nNo error.",
