Syllabus

<p>Criminal Law. — Evidence—Identification by Voice.</p> <p>A witness may be permitted to identify an accused solely from having heard his voice, and such testimony is admissible and legitimate to establish identity. Such evidence is not the statement of mere matter of opinion, but is the statement of a conclusion reached directly and primarily from an operation of the sense of hearing. Neither is such evidence to be considered as circumstantial, but is direct and positive proof of a fact, and its probative value is a question for the jury.</p>
