Summary

Rufus Wheeler Peckham Matthews v. United States — Opinion of the Court

This is no record, and it is not within the principle upon which the cases relied upon by counsel for plaintiff in error were decided. Such a variance as appears in this case is not material. Rex v. Coppard, 3 Car. & P. 59; Keator v. People, 32 Mich. 484; People v. Hoag, 2 Parker, Cr. R. 1. It will be seen that the time was stated under a videlicet in this indictment, although that fact is probably not very material.
