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

Ryland, Judge.

This case involves the same questions as have been just settled in the case of the State v. Havely. The judgment of the Circuit Court is reversed, and the case remanded. See opinion in Havely’s case, which is adopted for this case, rmitati s mutandis; Judge Leonard concurring ; Judge Scott dissenting.

Scott, Judge.

For my view, with regard to this ease, reference is made to my opinion in the case of State v. Havely, decided at this term.
