Indictment for larceny from the house. Before Judge Sparks. City court of Brunswick. February term, 1900.
1Opinion of the CourtLittle, J.
Even if the evidence was sufficient to show that the defendant committed the larceny with which she stood charged, a new trial should nevertheless have been granted, because no proof was made of the value of the article alleged to have been stolen, nor of the time at which the larceny was committed.
Judgment reversed.
All the Justices concurring, except Fish, J., absent.
