State v. Johnson
32 Tex. 96
Tex.
1869
Check Treatment
Lindsay, J.

The motion to quash the indictment in tills case was properly sustained. There is no allegation in it, of either the time or oí the place of the commission of the offense. The first is necessary, that it may appear from the charge it is not barred by the statute of limitations. The other is indispensable, that the court may know whether it has jurisdiction of the cause. For these defects it was rightfully quashed. The judgment is affirmed.

Affirmed.
