¶1dissenting. I dissent from Headnote 3 of the opinion and the judgment of affirmance because the charge that if the State proved its case beyond a reasonable doubt the jury would be authorized to find the defendant guilty as charged, excluded from the consideration of the jury the evidence of the defendant, including his statement.
¶2I am authorized to state that Mr. Justice Nichols concurs in this dissent.
