The appeal was granted on the 17th of November, 1887. The transcript was filed on the 30th, same month. The ten days expired on the 27th of November and the filing of the transcript was within three days thereafter, which was in time. State vs. Corcoran, 38 Ann. 950. State vs. Butler, 38 Ann. 392. State vs. Hampton, 33 Ann. 1252.
The motion to dismiss is therefore refused.
