The defendant appeals from a sentence of five years’ imprisonment in the penitentiary for burglary and larceny. [Defendant proposed to one Hill that he join him in the burglary of a general store. Hill, actually a relative of the store owners, feigned acquiescence in order to obtain the arrest of defendant and advised the store owners of the plan. On the night of the planned burglary, defendant and Hill arrived at the store together. Defendant raised window and assisted Hill in climbing through the building. Hill handed out a side of bacon. Shortly thereafter they were apprehended.]
