275 Indictment for murder or manslaughter
In an indictment for murder, or manslaughter, it shall not be necessary
to set out the way in which, or the means by which, the death alleged
was caused, but it shall be sufficient in an indictment for murder to
charge that the accused did murder the deceased, and in an indictment
for manslaughter to charge that the accused did kill the deceased.
