Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court November 15, 1871 (Commonwealth v. McLaughlin)

By the Court.

The evidence offered, tending to prove that the defendant drove a wagon load of ale through the streets of Chelsea, where it was illegal to sell ale, and made deliveries therefrom at two places, that they were places where liquor was sold, and that one of them was a beer shop, was clearly competent, as it tended to prove the offence charged.
