Missouri Court of Appeals March 17, 1908 (State v. Hall)

NORTONI, J.

Defendant was convicted in the circuit court of Newton county of the offense of selling intoxicating liquors in violation of the local option law. He appeals to this court, insisting the indictment against him is insufficient in that it fails to charge the local option law to have been in force in the county at the date he is alleged to have sold the liquor in violation thereof.
