¶1 Opinion op the Court by
¶2 Reversing.
¶3 Ben Dewey Jones and Bill Hendrickson were jointly indicted for breaking and entering a storehouse. They had separate trials, each was, over objection, used as a witness against the other, and each one was given one year in the penitentiary, as a punishment.
¶4 We have this day reversed the case of Hendrickson v. Com., 28 S. W. (2d) 646, 235 Ky. 5, and upon the authority of that opinion, and for the reasons there given, this judgment is also reversed.
