Counsel of record for plaintiff in error has filed a motion to dismiss the appeal in this case, and asks that the mandate issue forthwith. The motion to dismiss the appeal is allowed, and the appeal herein dismissed, and the cause remanded to the trial court, with direction to cause its judgment and sentence to be carried into execution. Mandate forthwith. *Page 208
