Opinion of the Court — Guerry

Text extracted by OCR from a scanned original; check the original for exact wording.

Guerry, J.

The evidence of the possession of whisky was entirely circumstantial, and was not sufficient to exclude every reasonable hypothesis save that of the guilt of the accused. The court erred in overruling the motion for new trial.

Judgment reversed.

MacIntyre, J., concurs. Broyles, G. J., dissents.
