1Opinion of the CourtMyers, C. J.
Appellant was indicted, tried, convicted and sentenced for grand larceny in the alleged stealing, taking and carrying away of a piano of the value of $300.
The theory of the State was that the piano was procured by trickery and fraudulent representations. The theory of appellant is that there is no evidence in the record, direct or inferential, of any trick or fraud, and hence that the verdict and judgment are wholly without evidence to support either, and this is the sole question presented. The error assigned is in overruling the motion for a new trial.
