    Simmons v. The State.
    Criminal law. Aiding escape.
    That a person confined in jail, after effecting an exit from his own cell into a common hall, used a saw upon - the fastenings 'of the door to the cell of a fellow-prisoner in such a way as to indicate a purpose to open that door, is evidence enough to convict him on an indictment for aiding such fellow-prisoner to escape, the statute declaring that the offence may be complete whether the escape be actually effected or not. Code, §4482.
