Syllabus

<p>Fobmeb Gohvictios'. — Theft of sundry articles at the same time and place, and by the same person, constitutes but a single offence, notwithstanding the articles severally belonged to different persons, and were taken severally from the possession of their respective owners.

See the opinion in extenso as to the scope of the ruling.</p>
