        "text": "Pee Cubiam.\nThere was plenary evidence to support the verdict.\nThe State's evidence tends to show: The robbery occurred at Usher\u2019s Service Station in St. Pauls, Robeson County, about 11:30 on the night of Tuesday, January 4, 1966. Defendant and a confederate, at pistol point, made the service station attendant and two bystanders line up against the wall and later lie down on the floor. The money in the cash register was taken and also the money and billfold of the attendant and of each bystander. In the course of the robbery, defendant said: \u201cLet\u2019s kill them or take them with us.\u201d The other replied, \u201cNo, let\u2019s put them on the floor and go.\u201d A witness testified: \u201cThey then made us lie down and said not to get up for five minutes or they would kill us.\u201d Defendant was arrested on January 7, 1966.\nDefendant did not testify. He offered evidence tending to show he went to his mother\u2019s home in Pembroke, N. C., about 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, January 4, 1966, and did not leave that night.\nDefendant\u2019s only assignment of error, based on his exception to the court\u2019s instruction relating to alibi, is without merit. The instruction given complies with all requirements set forth in S. v. Spencer, 256 N.C. 487, 124 S.E. 2d 175, the only case cited in defendant\u2019s brief. Decisions in which similar instructions have been approved are cited in S. v. Allison, 256 N.C. 240, 123 S.E. 2d 465. Indeed, the instruction appears to be in all respects quite favorable to defendant.\nNo error.",
