A new trial was awarded and he was again convicted upon the count for larceny and was sentenced to a term of two years in the penitentiary. His motion for a new trial assailed the verdict as being contrary to the evidence.\nThe proof was that, in the night of December 25th, 1883, the store of R. C. Bennett, in Monticello, was entered and among other things a watch was stolen. About a month afterwards, this watch was found by the Sheriff on the person of the plaintiff in error. In explanation of his possession, he stated that the watch had been given to him by one John Preddy, his confederate in the burglary, for his share of the spoils \u2014 that he had watched on the outside while Preddy robbed Bennett\u2019s house. If this were so, both were equally guilty.. Carr v State, ante 99.\nJudgment affirmed.'",
