Taylor v. State , 22 Ala. 15 ( 1853 )

LIGON, J.

We think the court below mistook the law, in both the charges given; for our opinion is, that a field surrounded by a forest, and one mile from any highway or other public place, does not lose its private character by the casual presence of three persons. Yet such is the effect of the ruling in the court below.

Let the judgment be reversed, and the cause remanded.
