1Opinion of the Court
Willson, Judge.
In this case the indictment was presented and filed on the fourth day of October, 1886, and alleges the offense to have been committed on the twenty-second day of October, 1886. The indictment is therefore fatally defective, and the judgment is reversed and the prosecution is dismissed.
Reversed and dismissed.
