Syllabus

<p>1. In the trial of an indictment for larceny it is always necessary to prove the value of the property alleged to have been stolen, in order to determine the grade of the offence and the penalty to be imposed.</p> <p>2. When the bill of exceptions in such a case embraces the testimony and does not show the value of the property so charged to have been stolen, and this court cannot see that -the proper verdict has been found, the court will award a new trial.</p>
