1Opinion of the Court

Travis,.J.

—The question in this case arises on a motion for a new trial, which questions the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the venue. The facts are identical with those in Christ v. State (1921), ante 56, 131 N. E. 820. The cause is thereby reversed on the authority of that case, with instructions to the trial court to sustain appellant’s motion for a new trial.
