2 Div. 943.
October 15, 1957.
Appeal from Circuit Court, Choctaw County; Joe M. Pelham, Jr., Judge.
Thompson Beck, Butler, Skidmore Davidson, Tuscaloosa, and E.C. Boswell, Geneva, for appellant.
John Patterson, Atty. Gen., and Jas. W. Webb, Asst. Atty. Gen., for the State.

This is a companion case to that of Patrick v. State, ante, p. 240, 97 So.2d 589. The facts are substantially the same as those in the Patrick case.
The questions involving the evidence, pertaining to the keg and its introduction and the cross examination of the character witnesses, which were considered by the court in the Patrick case, are involved here.
For the errors indicated, the cause is reversed on the authority of Patrick v. State, supra.
Reversed and remanded.
