Speakman, Judge:
It is the contention of the defendant below that the entry in the record of the Justice that, “Defendant was *4informed of his rights to elect to be tried before Court of Common Pleas in and for Kent County, Delaware or me. Defendant elected to be tried in this court, May 3rd, 1947,” does not show a compliance with the Act, which requires that both the Justice and the officer making the arrest advise the accused of his right to elect to have his case tried by the Court of Common Pleas for Kent County before the Justice shall have jurisdiction and power to try the case.
