We have repeatedly held that bills of indictment charging felonies, in which there has been a failure to use the word \u201cfeloniously,\u201d are fatally defective, unless the Legislature otherwise expressly provides. State v. Callett, 211 N.C. 563, 191 S.E. 27. The motion must be sustained and the judgment arrested. This does not entitle defendant to be discharged on this count. The State, if it so elects, may put defendant to trial on a bill properly charging \u201cSafecracking.\u201d\nWe find no error in the trial below on the other counts in the bills of indictment. However, since the sentences on those counts are to begin at the expiration of the sentence on the third count in the bill of indictment in case No. 5632 (safecracking), the judgments on such counts must be set aside and the cause remanded for judgment thereon.
