PER Cueiam.

Defendant in this action was indicted and tried at the same time and upon the same bill of indictment as Jerry Arnold Fuqua (State v. Fuqua). The decisive facts in the instant case and in State v. Fuqua are the same. Upon authority of State v. Fuqua, ante 223, and cases therein cited, we hold that the confession made’ by defendant to officer Cook was involuntary. Since it was error to admit the confession into evidence, there must be a

New trial.’
