Stealing in United States
Stealing Definition
This term imports, ex vi termini, nearly the same as larceny (2 G. Greene [Iowa] 311) but In common parlance it does not always import a felony; as, for example, you stole an acre of my land. In slander cases, it seems that the term “stealing” takes its complexion from the subject matter to which it is applied, and will be considered as intended of a felonious stealing, if a felony, could have been committed of such subject matter. Starkie, Sland. & L. 80; 12 Johns. (N. Y.) 239; 3 Bin. (Pa.) 546.
