1. The two appellants pleaded guilty to wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm. Originally they were charged with a third person upon an indictment containing a single charge of wounding with intent to murder. Upon these pleas being accepted the appellants were convicted of the latter charge and the trial of the other prisoner (who then appeared as the second accused in the case) proceeded and he was acquitted upon the original charge.
