Opinion
On the trial of two defendants for larceny, a verdict which reads,. “ We, the jury empanneled to try the above case, find the defendant guilty as charged in the indictment,” is void for uncertainty. Such a verdict cannot be amended on the affidavits of the jurors showing that they intended to convict both defendants: Richards v. Sperry, 7 Wis. 219. Judgment reversed and new trial ordered: Corn v. Call, 21 Pick. 514; Stuart’s Case, 28 Gratt. 967; Hogan v. State, 30 Wis. 428.
