— Appellant, in the Lake Superior Court, was charged by affidavit with the offense of grand larceny. He was tried by a jury, and a verdict was returned finding him guilty of petit larceny, and assessing his punishment at imprisonment in the county jail for thirty days, a fine of $25, and disfranchisement for one year. Appellant’s motion for a new trial was overruled, and this ruling is here assigned as error. The only causes in support of the motion and not waived are: That the verdict is not sustained by sufficient evidence, and that it is contrary to law.
