## Opinion text

Farmer, C. J., and Cooke, J., specially.concurring: We concur in the view of the majority that this judgment must be reversed,.but in our opinion the reversal should be upon the ground that the evidence, if it proves anything, tends to show the crime of rape, which was not charged in the indictment and is expressly excluded from the statute relating to indecent liberties with children, under which this prosecution was had.
