¶2The evidence adduced at the trial showed that the three hogs alleged to have been stolen were the property of John F. Hamilton. The allegation in the indictment was that they belonged to John Houston. The ownership should have been proved as alleged. The variance is fatal. Blankenship v. State, 55 Ark. 244. In other respects the evidence of the defendant’s guilt, as it appears in the record before us, is weak and unsatisfactory.
