Jones et al. v. The State.
    Prom the Decatur Circuit Court.
    
      J. 8. 8eobey, for appellants.
    
      G. A. Busldrk, Attorney General, for the State.
   Worden, J.

George Jones, Samuel Jones and Buchanan Wiley were indicted jointly for aiding one James Peck, a prisoner confined in the jail of Decatur county, Indiana, on a charge of larceny, to escape from said prison.

Samuel Jones and Buchanan Wiley were put upon trial for the offence, before the court, without a jury, and upon such trial were convicted.

The case is before us on the evidence, the only question being whether that is sufficient to sustain the finding. Upon a careful examination of the evidence, we are of opinion that it reasonably sustains the finding, and that the judgment must be affirmed.

The judgment below is affirmed, with costs.
