cause he receives a string Of sau-

The city council, as well as the

for the true critique OF the prob

only to such animals as to which

In the case under consideration,
the defendant is not shown 10 have
sold meat nor to have had any in
tention of doing so in Charleston.
He was merely in transit through
by misadventare, from
whence he had slaughtered the
meat. to point outside of the city.
where he could legally sell the
same. Respondents counsel is mis-
