Specifically, defendant contends that the court erred in its instructions with respect to testimony of an alleged accomplice; also, that the court expressed an opinion on the evidence in violation of G.S. 1-180. The assignment of error is without merit. We have carefully reviewed the jury charge, with particular reference to the portion complained of, and conclude that the charge was fair to defendant and was free from prejudicial error.\nNo error.\nJudges Campbell and Hedrick concur.",
