J.\nAt the December Term, 1939, Johnston Superior Court, the defendant herein, Zeb Page, was tried upon indictment charging him with rape, which resulted in a conviction of the capital offense, and sentence of death as the law commands on such verdicts.\nFrom the judgment thus entered, the defendant gave notice of appeal and was allowed to prosecute same in forma pauperis. The clerk certifies that nothing has been done towards perfecting the appeal and that the time for filing it has expired. He further states in his certificate that he is informed by counsel they do not intend to prosecute the appeal. S. v. Stovall, 214 N. C., 695, 200 S. E., 426.\nIn the absence of any apparent error, which the record now before us fails to disclose, the motion of the Attorney-General to docket and dismiss under Rule 17 will be allowed. S. v. Moore, 216 N. C., 543.\nJudgment affirmed. Appeal dismissed.",
