Johnson v. State

Appellant was convicted of the offense of petit larceny.

It was charged in the indictment, under which he was tried, that he “feloniously took and carried away from a railroad car three journal brasses of the value of nine dollars, the personal property of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company, a corporation” etc.

We see nothing wrong with the indictment, and hold that the demurrers thereto were properly overruled. Code 1923, § 4905; Code 1923, § 4556 (form 64).

Appellant, under this indictment, could, of course, be convicted of the offense of petit larceny. Phillips v. State, 167 Ala.…
