1Opinion of the Court

Opinion of the Court by

Chief Justice Ratliff

Affirming.

The appellant, Alvin Webster, was indicted and convicted in the G-allatin circuit court for the crime of stealing turkeys of the value' of more than $2, and was sentenced to one year in the penitentiary. He has appealed from that judgment, insisting on a reversal, on the grounds: (1) The evidence is insufficient to sustain a conviction, (2) the court erred in admitting incompetent evidence prejudicial to his substantial rights, and (3) the instructions are erroneous and prejudicial. We will consider these grounds in the order named.
