The act of laying hold upon an article ,
with or without removing the same ;
a felonious taking is not sufficient without a carrying away ,
to constitute the crime of larceny . (
q .
v .)
And when the taking has been legal ,
no subsequent act will make it a crime .
1 Moody ,
Cr .
Cas .

2 .
The taking is either actual or constructive .
The former is when the thief takes ,
without any pretence of a contract ,
the property in question .
3 .
A constructive felonious taking occurs when ,
under pretence of a contract ,
the thief obtains the felonious possession of goods ;
as ,
when under the pretence of hiring ,
he had a felonious intention at the time of the pretended contract ,
to convert the property to his own use .
The court of criminal sessions for the city and county of Philadelphia have decided that in the case of a man who found a quantity of lumber ,
commonly called a raft ,
floating on the river Delaware and fastened to the shore ,
and sold it ,
to another person ,
at so low a price .
as to enable the purchaser to remove it ,
and did no other act himself ,
but afterwards the purchaser removed it ,
that this was a taking by the thief ,
and he was actually convicted and sentenced to two years imprisonment in the penitentiary .

It cannot be doubted ,
says Pothier ,

that by selling and delivering a thing which he knows does not belong to him ,
the party is guilty of theft .
4 .
When property is left through inadvertence with a person and he conceals it animo furandi ,
he is guilty of a felonious taking and may be convicted of larceny .
17 Wend .
460 .
5 .
But when the owner parts with the property willingly ,
under an agreement that he is never to receive the style identical property ,
the taking is not felonious ;
as ,
when a person delivered to the defendant a sovereign to get it changed ,
and the defendant never returned either with the sovereign or the change ,
this was not larceny .
