Beck, J.

The important principle ruled in the third headnote is ‍‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​​​​​​‍not elaborated here, but a most elaborate and exhaustive discussion of the doctrine involved in that ruling will ‍‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​​​​​​‍be found in 1 Wharton on Criminal Law (11th ed.), § 370 et seq., and the numerous cases cited as ‍‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​​​​​​‍authority for the text. Besides, this matter is elaborately treated in the copious extracts from the decisions of many ‍‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​​​​​​‍courts contained in the note to the case In re John Sharp, 18 L. B. A. (N. S.) ‍‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​​​​​​‍886 (15 Idaho, 120, 96 Pac. 563).
