I. The defendant moved in arrest of judgment, on the alleged ground of the insufficiency of the indictment. It is urged that the indictment fails to show that the assault was feloniously made, and fails to show that the money was carried away with the felonious intent to permanently convert the same, and fails to show that the money was taken without Lee’s consent.
The indictment charges that the defendant made an assault upon Sam Lee, “and with force and violence unlawfully and feloniously did steal, take and carry away from the person of the said Sam Lee four $20 bills,” etc.
