Archer et al. vs. The State of Georgia.
    1. In an indictment for playing and betting at “ chuckluck,” it is sufficient to allege that money was bet, without specifying whether it was gold, silver or bank notes. 20 Ga., 153.
    2. Section 4540 of the Code provides for the punishment of one who keeps a faro table or other like table, while section 4541 provides for the punishment of one who bets at such table or on certain specified games, one of which is “ chuckluck ”.
    3. An indictment which charged that the defendants played and bet with each other, is sustained by proof that they played at the same game and bet, although they all bet against the man who presided at the game.
    September 19, 1882.
