Weaver v. State

By the Court.

The cases of Joseph Weaver v. State of Ohio, No. 21473, and John Sabo v. State of Ohio, No. 21483, by agreement of counsel, were presented and argued together, and, in view of the fact that such cases involve the same question, will be considered and decided together.
