Supreme Court of Missouri January 15, 1856 (State v. Ragan)

Ryland, Judge,

delivered the opinion of the court.

This was an indictment founded on the 27th section of the 8th article of the act concerning crimes and punishments. (R. C. 1845, p. 404.) The defendants appeared and moved the court to quash the indictment; which motion was overruled and excepted to, and saved by bill of exceptions.
