Head Matter:
Henderson v. The State.
Submitted October 17,
Decided October 26, 1900.
Acensation of vagrancy. Before Judge Toombs. City court of Washington. August 25, 1900.
R. C. Norman, for plaintiff in error.
W. M. Sims, solicitor, contra.

Opinion:
Fish, J.
Apparently the'-penal statutes against vagrancy are not applicable to any minor, but if they are so in any case, no minor can be lawfully convicted of this offense when it is shown, by undisputed evidence, that he has a parent able and willing to support him and who is, in fact, so doing. See Teasley v. State, 109 Ga. 282. . Judgment reversed.
All the Justices concurring.
