Opinion

PER CURIAM.

In our opinion the circumstantial evidence on which appellant was convicted of housebreaking could not fairly be thought to prove him guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Accordingly his motion for acquittal should have been granted, and a judgment of acquittal should now be entered.

Reversed.
