State v. Robert S. Barker , 3 R.I. 280 ( 1856 )

Staples, C. J.

It is not necessary in an indictment for this offence, to set forth in the indictment the mode or manner in which the defendant was not appointed agent of the place where the sales of liquors are made, to mate sales in such place. An averment that he was not “duly” or was not “legally” appointed, or that he “was not appointed” such agent, or “was not such agent,” at the time of the sales complained of, is fully sufficient.

Motion overruled.
