Judgment of death in tbe manner prescribed by law was thereupon rendered. Tbe defendant gave notice of appeal to tbe Supreme Court and was allowed forty-five days in which to make up and serve bis case on appeal, and tbe solicitor was allowed thirty days thereafter to make up and serve countercase or file exceptions.\nTbe Attorney-General makes and files a motion to docket and dismiss tbe appeal, under Rule 17, for tbe reason that defendant has failed to perfect and prosecute tbe same, and therewith files transcript of tbe case and certificate of tbe clerk of tbe Superior Court of Mecklenburg County, showing that tbe appeal was not perfected within tbe time provided by law, and that no agreement for an extension of time to file case on appeal has been made. Tbe time for serving case on appeal has expired.\nTbe appeal must be dismissed. Tbe Court, however, has carefully examined tbe record in tbe case as docketed in this Court and finds no error. S. v.
