““To entitle the state to introduce in evidence against the person on trial the acts and declarations of another relative to the offense charged, it is essential that the existence of a conspiracy or common purpose between the defendant and the alleged co-conspirator to commit the crime charged he shown, hut the law does not require direct and positive evidence of such conspiracy. It is sufficient if it may be inferred from the facts and circumstances in evidence.””
