The defendant\u2019s contention, made first at the trial, that he had lost the watch and that his wife had pawned the ring without his knowledge or consent were matters in defense rejected by the jury.\nThe warrant as amended is fully sufficient to charge the violation of C. S., sec. 4287, and defendant\u2019s demurrer thereto cannot be sustained. Likewise, the court fully and correctly charged the law applicable to the evidence and the contentions based thereon. The defendant\u2019s exceptions thereto cannot be sustained.\nIn the trial below we find\nNo error.",

Prom a verdict of guilty in said court the defendant appealed to the Superior Court.\nOn 3 January, 1937, the defendant executed to J. D.

This note was payable in monthly installments beginning 1 March, 1937.\nThe defendant having made only two monthly payments, the holder of said lien in July, 1937, demanded the return of the ring and watch to be sold to satisfy the lien. At that time the defendant told the prosecuting witness that he had pawned the ring and did not have the watch. Thereupon the prosecuting witness issued the warrant upon which the defendant was tried.\nThe jury returned a verdict of guilty. The defendant excepted to the judgment pronounced thereon and appealed.\nAttorney-General McMullan and Assistant Attorney-General Willis for the State.\nWhiclcer & Whiclcer for defendant, appellant."
