285 N.C. 751

STATE of North Carolina v. Vesta Ray ARNOLD.

Supreme Court of North Carolina.

October 10, 1974.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Atty. Gen. Robert Morgan and Asst. Atty. Gen. Robert G. Webb, Raleigh, for the State.

Donald R. Smith, Durham, for defendant appellant.

MOORE, Justice.

The sole question presented to this Court is whether the defendant can be lawfully convicted of the felony of attempt to commit arson (G.S. § 14-67) on an indictment charging him with arson.

Arson is not defined by our statutes but is a common law offense. State v. Long, 243 N.C. 393, 396, 90 S.E.2d 739, 741 (1956). See State v. Ingland, 278 N.C. 42, 49, 178 S.E.2d 577
