Indictment for burglary. Before Judge Henry. Floyd superior court. July term, 1901.
Harris, Chamlee & Harris, for plaintiff in error.

Opinion:
Lumpkin, P. J.
Where an indictment for burglary charged that the accused broke and entered a designated house with intent to steal therefrom a specific article, and there was no proof that this article was ever in the house, or that the accused had any reason to believe it was, a verdict of guilty can not stand.
Judgment reversed.
All the Justices concurring.
