State v. Bankston

The two defendants were charged with robbery, that is to say, in common parlance, with holding up one Robert McGee and forcing him to turn over to them $3,500 which the said McGee held in trust for the Great Southern Lumber Company.

Bankston pleaded guilty, and a jury of his own selection declared by its verdict that Morris was likewise guilty.

From a sentence to hard labor in the penitentiary, Morris appeals.

His counsel reserved seven bills of exception, but only four of them are mentioned in counsel’s brief.

We have examined the three not discussed (bills 4, 5, and 7) and find no merit in them.
