Crowder v. The State.
Decided January 15, 1912.
Accusation of malicious mischief; from city court of Sanders-ville — Judge Jordan.
May 19, 1911.
W. E. Armistead, for plaintiff in error.
J. E. Hyman, solicitor, contra.

Opinion:
Russell, J.
There was no evidence that the killing of the hog was malicious. The only evidence from which it was contended malice could be inferred was that the accused did not have a fence at least four and a half feet high around his crop, to prevent the destruction of which the animal was killed. In stock-law counties land lines supply the place of the statutory fence.
Judgment reversed.
