Syllabus

<p>1. An objection that evidence was hearsay, will not avail, when the party making the remark was immediately placed upon the stand and testified thereto.</p> <p>2. Upon trial of two jointly indicted the impeachment of one testifying affects his evidence as to both.</p> <p>3. A charge defining larceny as a “taking and carrying” omitting the word “away” is harmless when the asportation is admitted.</p> <p>4. A judgment on an information for larceny of a mortgage will not be arrested for failure to allege an acknowledgment, when an acknowledgment is not necessary to the validity of the mortgage.</p> <p>5. The omission of the word dollars in stating the value of a mortgage stolen should not arrest the judgment where the identical figures with the word added is given in the information as the consideration for the mortgage.</p> <p>6. The evidence supports the verdict.</p>
