Syllabus

<p>1. Criminal Law and Procedure. Tenue, defective statement. Objection out of time. Supreme court practice.</p> <p>A defective statement of venue in an indictment or affidavit charging crime, objected to for the first time in the supreme court, does not warrant the reversal of a judgment convicting the defendant.</p> <p>2. Same. Special bill of exceptions.</p> <p>A special hill of exceptions, purporting to set out only the testimony offered on the hearing of a motion for a new trial, does not bring in review generally the correctness of the judgment sought to be vacated.</p>
