Description
The facts as certified to us in the record are substantially as follows: C. W. Williams, while collecting premiums for an industrial insurance company on the night of November 16, 1929, in that part of South Richmond called "Tanyard Bottom," was robbed of $80.00. Williams claims that Raymond Holmes, the accused, struck him from behind, knocked him down and took his money; that while being robbed he had a good look at the face of his assailant, and on the same night, shortly after the robbery, when the accused was brought to the police station under arrest, he recognized him. Just before the robbery, the accused was seen by another witness following Williams down the street. Others saw him on the same night shooting crap near the scene of the crime, but whether before or after the robbery does not appear.
