Moore, which resulted in a conviction of murder in the first degree and sentence of death. From the judgment thus entered, the defendant gave notice of appeal to the Supreme Court and was allowed until 30 September following to make out and serve his statement of case on appeal, and the solicitor was given until 1 November to prepare and file exceptions or countercase. The clerk certifies \u201cthat the said King Solomon Stovall has not filed in this oifiee any statement of his case on appeal, and I am informed by his counsel that he does not intend to do so,\u201d and the time for serving statement of case has expired. S. v. Watson, 208 N. C., 70, 179 S. E., 455; S. v. Brown, 206 N. C., 747, 175 S. E., 116. No bond was required, as the defendant was granted the privilege of appealing in forma pauperis. S. v. Stafford, 203 N. C., 601, 166 S. E., 734.\nAs the record is free from apparent error, the motion of the Attorney-General to docket and dismiss the appeal under Rule 17 will be allowed. S. v. Moore, 210 N. C., 686, 188 S. E., 421; S. c., ibid., 459, 187 S. E., 586.\nJudgment affirmed; appeal dismissed.",
