39 So. 999

Cali, Ioon

Opinion of the Court

Cali-ioon, J.,

delivered the opinion of the court.

This man seems to be a pertinacious violator of law. This is his third conviction for the unlawful sale of intoxicants. Under this condition the court had the right (Code 1892, § 1489) to require bond of him “to keep the peace and to be of good behavior,” which it did. The bond expires at the time limited from its date.

Affirmed.
