Erwin v. State
49 S.E. 689
Ga.
1905
Check Treatment
Candler, J.

On the trial of one charged with the illegal sale of intoxicating liquors, it was error to admit evidence of such a sale by the accused more than two years prior to the date of the accusation, and to charge the jury that they might “ consider these transactions as circumstances in arriving at a proper verdict.” Judgment reversed.

All the Justices concur.
