Couet

United States v. Conner

Opinion of the Court

The Couet

instructed the jury that it was not necessary for the United States to prove that the traverser was the owner of the table, if he played at it as owner, and appeared to be the person who set it up. And that it was of no importance whether the traverser áeted as principal or as agent or servant for the owner of the table. In each case he was equally guilty.
