Opinion of the Court
We are of opinion that § 13 of St. 1855, c. 215, which authorizes the seizure of liquors, is not unconstitutional; that the law was in all respects correctly stated to the jury; that the verdict has established the facts which, by the law, constituted" a defence to the action; and that the illustration used by the judge in his remarks to the jury, which is excepted tr by the plaintiff, is not a legal ground of exception.
Exceptions overruled.
