Supreme Court of North Carolina September 5, 1895 (State v. . Bynum)

*753

Faircloth, C. J.:

The defendants are indicted in the ordinary form for stealing money and one pocket-knife from the person of W. W. Harris, and were convicted and sentenced to the penitentiary for seven years. The evidence showed that said Harris and B. E. Barbee were asleep at night by a camp fire, when defendants assaulted and took from each one his separate money at the same time.
