Texas Supreme Court July 1, 1874 (Smith v. State)

Gould, Associate Justice.

The indictment charges the offense of assault with intent to rape, substantially in the language of the statute, (Pas. Dig., arts. 2156, 2184,) and was, we think, sufficient.

The record discloses that the injured party was a child in her fourth year at the time of the offense, (August 14, *3541871,) and at the time of the trial in the seventh year of her age.
