Blandford, J.
-Where, on the trial of an indictment for hog stealing, the evidence showed that the prosecutor lost several hogs which had been marked; that he found them in a pen near the house of the accused; that they had been re-marked, and an attempt made to entirely obliterate the mark of the prosecutor, though some of his marks remained, and they were identified as belonging to the prosecutor, a verdict of guilty was supported by the evidence.
Judgment affirmed.
