Attorney-General McMullan and Assistant Attorneys-General Rhodes and Moody for the State.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
The several assignments of error presented by defendant on this appeal have been carefully considered and are found to be without merit. The trial appears to have been conducted in full accordance with settled rules of evidence and well established principles of law. And the evidence taken in the light most favorable to the State is sufficient to take the case to the jury, and to support the verdict. Hence, in the judgment below we find
No error.
