- finding no error where indictment charged intent to commit specific felony but jury instructed on multiple possible felonies
- “we have never required conformity to Webster . . . though we recommend it”
- no error in instructing jury that they could find defendant intended to commit either of two felonies because indictment specifying particular felony was “mere surplusage and unnecessary to describe the crime”
