The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

““Most, but not all, States require that the ownership of the building burglarized be stated in the indictment and proven so as to negative a right of entry by the accused and to establish identity. See Anno. 169 A.L.R. 887 . It is generally held that the ownership alleged and shown need not be that of the legal title holder if another, not the accused, is in lawful possession of the building involved under a special property interest. The propositions set forth in this paragraph are supported by 13 Am.Jur.2d Burglary Sec. 37, p. 342 and 4 Wharton’s Criminal Law and Procedure ( Anderson 1957 ), Sec. 178-1, p. 604, and the cases.””

State, 203 Md. 66, 75 [, 98 A.2d 8, 12-13 (1953)], that a factory, which was a type of building not mentioned in the statutes there involved, was included within the meaning of the term storehouse which was named in the statutes, because goods manufactured in the building were kept there for some period after being made ready for sale.

In Hardison v. State, 226 Md. 53, 58 [, 172 A.2d 407, 409-410 (1961)], Judge Prescott, speaking for the Court, adopted a dictionary definition of storehouse ... and equated storeroom as used in Sec. 33 of Art. 27 with storehouse as used in Sec. 32. See also Jones v. Hungerford, 4 G & J, 402, 406 [ (1832) ], which held that a schoolhouse, not parcel of a dwelling house, was an outhouse and suggested that all buildings other than dwellings were covered by the statute there involved, which made it a crime to burn a variety of s”
