    Arthur M. Pitts and A. D. Pitts, both of Selma, for appellant. Harwell G. Davis, Atty. Gen,, for the State.
   SAMFORD, J.

The evidence fails to connect defendants, or either of them, with possession of the stills found. The affirmative charge should have been given for defendants. Hobdy v. State (Ala.
