From a verdict of guilty and judgment imposing penal servitude of six months, the defendant appeals, assigning errors.


This case involves no new question requiring extended discussion. A careful examination of the record leaves us with the impression it is free of reversible or prejudicial error. The verdict and judgment will be upheld.
