Appeals, Galveston Term, 1888

Floyd ct al. VS.. Rust, administrator; from
Wharton county. Suit on u note given for
land purchased at an administrators safe,
and to loreclose u mortgage given on the
land. Floyd and his suretios plead that
Floyd owned large claim against the es-
tate that had been allowed and approved,
that he had bought it for the purpose OF
purchasing lands of the estate, that on the
day of the sale he exhibited it to the adj
ministrator, who said it was good, and that
Floyd could purchase s., 500 worth of land
on it; that but for this assurance
of the administrator, he would not
have finished purchasing the land, as was
done, etc. These allegations were denied.
Held one member of this court holds, that
even If the administrator had made the
representations imputed to him, yet the
defendant could not avoid the payment of
the note, without rendering back
the deed and proposing sto rescind
the contract, and thought Floyd was in.
jured by tie representations or acts of the
administrator. Floyds remedy is against
the administrator individually. The writer
holds that II the administrator can volunta-
rily receive claim in discharge. of debt
to the estate, he might, in favor OF per-
leotly innocent thru party acting in good
faith and proper caution, make such repre-
sentation as would bind him to receive il.
The appellant dees not come into this court
with perfectly clean hands, nor with a
record which does evidence the cearest act
OF good faith for nothing short of this would
suffice. Affirmed. Delany, j.

Pickrod vs.. the State; from Polk county
This is an. appeal from conviction fol
the violation of the local option law, il
which the punishment assessed was $50
The judge in the court below, in his
charge to the jury, charged them if they
found the defendant guilty, they should as
sess his punishment &C hot less than $50,
nor more than 500. Held, this charge
was radical error for which the Judgment
must be reversed. The minimum line as
sessed by the Penal Code for violation of
the above law. (P. c., art. GIo) IS $50;
! ~ CT. APP. 5i) For the same reason as
announced in Firtze VS.. The State, this judg-
ment having been reversed fer the above
error, the prosecution must be dismissed.
Reversed and dismissed. Wilson, j.
Fritze VS.. the State; from Polk county.
Two cases are governed by this opinion.
Both of them were convictions OF separate
viol atoms of the Law commonly known as
the "local option law" At the time when
the otiense was committed this law was
then in force IN Polk county. After de-
PENDANT had appealed and his appeal TO
this court had been perfected the voters oil
Polk county, at an election held for that
purpose according to law, by their ballots
annulled and rescinded the operation OF the
law in that county. This court has
been informed of the actions of the |
voters In said Polk county, by a proper |
manner. Accordingly, therefore,, to the |
established practice Of this court, there be-
ing no law to enforce the convictions were |
they affirmed, they must be reversed and |
and il is accordingly ordered.

First, that it is dupliotous and uncertain,
n.that il charges the oilense TO be commit
ed by force and threats, instead Of stating
pecically the mode as required by law;
md, second, it does not charge that the Of
ense was committed by an ADULT male upon {

we are only a miners supply store, and do not cater
mistake which we wish to correct. The fact that we
have a large business established with the miners, and
furnish them with large quantities of Goods is an adj
vantage to others who do business with us, for it en-
ables us to buy Goods in large quantities, which gives
lis the benefit Of discounts and lower freight rates than
smaller dealers, consequently we can undersell them.
To the buyers of Fancy Groceries we would say,
that we keep many Goods in that line that can not be
