Cravens v. Commonwealth

Opinion of the Court by

Judge Dietzman

Affirming.

Under an indictment charging him with selling to Wilse Pruitt an intoxicating liquor known as Jamaica ginger, and not for medical, mechanical, sacramental or scientific purposes, unlawfully and knowingly, or under circumstances from which he might deduce the intention of the purchaser to use the same as a beverage, the appellant was tried and found guilty, his punishment being fixed at a fine of one hundred dollars ($100.00) and confinement in the county jail for thirty days. He appeals, insisting that the verdict is not sustained by the evidence.
