Grant v. State

Opinion of the Court

Bleckley, C. J.

In a prohibition county, a person who receives money from another with a request to procure whisky, and who shortly afterward delivers the whisky, may be treated as the seller if no other person filling that character appears, and if it is not shown where, how or from whom the whisky was obtained. This case is controlled in principle by Paschal v. The State, 84 Ga. 326.

Judgment affirmed.
