1Opinion of the CourtJustice Farmer

Henry Knight, Edward Knight, John Smith and Ralph Lazelle were indicted by the grand jury of Edgar county, at the February term, 1922, for the larceny of one steer of' the value of $75, the property of Scott Baker. Henry Knight was tried and convicted under the indictment at the June term of the Edgar county circuit court, 1922, and has sued out this writ of error to review the judgment.

As the principal ground urged by defendant for a reversal of the judgment is that the verdict and judgment were not warranted by the testimony, it will be necessary to refer to the substance of the evidence.
