Supreme Court of Alabama January 15, 1872 (Williams v. State)

B. E. SAEEOLD, J.

The appellant was convicted of murder in the first degree, and sentenced to imprisonment in the penitentiary for life.

The venue having been changed from Colbert county to Lauderdale, he objected, on the trial, to the introduction in evidence of the transcript of the proceedings in Colbert circuit court, on the ground that it was not properly authenticated.
